End Behavior Practice

As x approaches -∞, if f(x) approaches DOWN, what is the end behavior?

• UP

• DOWN

• CONSTANT

• OSCILLATING

What is the significance of the leading coefficient in determining end behavior?

• It determines the degree of the polynomial.

• It indicates the number of x-intercepts.

• It determines whether the ends of the graph go up or down.

• It affects the symmetry of the graph.

What is the end behavior of the function f(x) = -x^2 - 3x + 1?

• UP UP

• DOWN UP

• UP DOWN

• DOWN DOWN

What is end behavior in a graph?

• End behavior describes the behavior of a graph as the input values (x) approach positive or negative infinity.

• End behavior refers to the maximum and minimum points of a graph.

• End behavior is the rate of change of a graph at its peak.

• End behavior indicates the symmetry of a graph around the y-axis.

What does it mean if a function has end behavior DOWN DOWN?

• It means that as x approaches -∞, f(x) approaches UP, and as x approaches +∞, f(x) approaches UP.

• It means that as x approaches -∞, f(x) approaches DOWN, and as x approaches +∞, f(x) approaches UP.

• It means that as x approaches -∞, f(x) approaches DOWN, and as x approaches +∞, f(x) also approaches DOWN.

• It means that as x approaches -∞, f(x) approaches UP, and as x approaches +∞, f(x) also approaches DOWN.

What is the end behavior of a polynomial function with an even degree and a negative leading coefficient?

• UP UP

• DOWN UP

• UP DOWN

• DOWN DOWN

Identify the end behavior: f(x) = -x^3 + 2x^2 + 3.

• UP UP

• DOWN DOWN

• UP DOWN

How can you determine the end behavior of a polynomial function?

• Examine the degree and leading coefficient of the function.

• Analyze the roots of the function.

• Evaluate the function at various points.

• Consider the coefficients of all terms in the function.

If a function has end behavior DOWN UP, what can be inferred about its degree?

• The degree is even, and the leading coefficient is positive.

• The degree is odd, and the leading coefficient is positive.

• The degree is odd, and the leading coefficient is negative.

• The degree is even, and the leading coefficient is negative.

Identify the end behavior: f(x) = x^4 + 3x^3 - 4x + 1.
