Is the leading coefficient positive or negative? Why?

• The leading coefficient is POSITIVE because the RIGHT SIDE goes UP.

• The leading coefficient is NEGATIVE because the RIGHT SIDE goes UP.

• The leading coefficient is POSITIVE because the RIGHT SIDE goes DOWN.

• The leading coefficient is NEGATIVE because the RIGHT SIDE goes DOWN.

The end behavior of a polynomial function is determined by the degree and the sign of the leading coefficient.
