Explain the significance of even and odd multiplicities on a graph.

Back

Even multiplicities touch the x-axis, while odd multiplicities cross the x-axis.

Front

How do you determine the end behavior of a polynomial function?

Back

The end behavior is determined by the degree (even or odd) and the sign of the leading coefficient.
