Describe the end behavior of f(x) = −3x² + 5x³ + 2x using limits. Explain your reasoning using the leading term test.

• Because the degree is even and the leading coefficient is positive, limit of f(x) as x approaches -ve inf. equals +ve inf. and limit of f(x) as x approaches +ve inf. equals +ve inf.

• Because the degree is odd and the leading coefficient is negative, limit of f(x) as x approaches -ve inf. equals +ve inf. and limit of f(x) as x approaches +ve inf. equals -ve inf.

• Because the degree is odd and the leading coefficient is positive, limit of f(x) as x approaches -ve inf. equals -ve inf. and limit of f(x) as x approaches +ve inf. equals +ve inf.
