Polynomial Function End Behavior from the Graph

Based on the end behavior of the polynomial, what best describes the leading coefficient?

• a negative real number

•  a positive real number

• an even real number

• an odd real number

Based on the end behavior of the polynomial, what is the degree of the polynomial?

• a negative real number

• a positive real number

• an odd real number

• an even real number

Based on the end behavior which option best describes the leading term?

• negative coefficient, even degree

• negative coefficient, odd degree

• negative degree, odd coefficient

• negative degree, even coefficient

What is the end behavior as x → -∞ f(x)→ ?

• -∞
