Question 1143211: Determine the leading term, the leading coefficient, and the degree of the polynomial. Then classify the polynomial function as constant, linear, quartic, quadratic, or cubic.
f(x)= 1/3x^3 - 2x +3
What I have is-
f(x)= 1 3 x 3 − 2 x + 3
What I have is-
leading term: 1 3 x 3
leading coefficient: 1 3
degree: 3
the polynomial function is classified as cubic
