Describe or determine the following
a. leading term_________
b. behavior of the graph_________
Since the leading term of the polynomial (the term in the polynomial which contains the highest power of the variable) is , the degree is , i.e. , and the leading coefficient is , i.e. .
This means that →-∞ as →-∞, →-∞ as →∞.
c. x-intercept_________
=> x-intercepts are , ,
d. multiplicity of roots___________
multiplicity
multiplicity
multiplicity
e. y- intercept________
if
y- intercept________
g. Sketch the graph___________
