Identify the right-hand and left-hand behavior of the graph of the polynomial function: f(x) = 6x^4 – x^2. When I graph this I get a \"U\" shape (-1,4) (0,0),(1,4). I can see that the \"y\" continues on line \"4\" is that the behavior of the left and right hand.
\n" ); document.write( "f(x) = 6x^4 – x^2.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If x=-1, f(-1)=6-1=5 giving the point (-1,5)
\n" ); document.write( "If x=0, f(0)=0 giving the point (0,0)
\n" ); document.write( "If x=1, f(1)=6-1=5 giving the point (1,5)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The graph is symmetric to the y-axis.
\n" ); document.write( "The left-hand side is symmetric to the right-hand side.
