Question 1143102: Hi! Could someone help walk me through this problem?
"True or false: The graph of the function f(x)= rises to the left and falls to the right. Briefly explain your answer."

False.

Why? Degree is even, being six, and lead coefficient negative. The way such a polynomial function behaves is that it decreases to the far left and decreases to the far right.
