End and Root Behavior of Polynomials

Which x-value is a root of the function below? f(x) = x³ + 4x² + 9x + 36

• x = 3

• x = -3

• x = 4

• x = -4

Which equation MOST LIKELY matches the graph? Remember to look at your roots, multiplicity, and end behavior!! Use your notes!

• y = x⁴ - x³ + 3x² + 2

• y = -x⁴ + x³ + 5x + 2

• y = x³ - 2x² + 1x + 3

• y = -x³ - 2x² + 1x + 3
