Leading term test for polynomial end behavior :
The end behavior of any non-constant polynomial function can be described in one of the following four ways, as determined by the degree
of the polynomial and its leading coefficient
.
For odd and
positive :
and
.
For odd and
negative :
and
.
For even and
positive :
and
.
For even and
negative :
and
.
Observe the graph of the function :
The end behavior of the graph is and
.
So the degree of the polynomial function is even and leading coefficient
is negative.
is even and
is negative.
