Which of the following does the graph have?

• absolute maximum

• relative maximum

• absolute minimum

• relative minimum

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.

Is the degree of the polynomial even or odd? Why?

• the degree is EVEN because the ends point the SAME WAY

• the degree is EVEN because the ends point OPPOSITE WAYS

• the degree is ODD because the ends point the SAME WAY

• the degree is ODD because the ends point OPPOSITE WAYS
