The polynomial equation is .
Make a table of values.
\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \![]() | ![]() |
![]() | ![]() |
![]() | ![]() |
![]() | ![]() |
![]() | ![]() |
![]() | ![]() |
![]() | ![]() |
Graph:
\Graph the function .
Plot the points obtained in the table
\ \ \
Observe the graph:
\The graph intersect the -axis at two points.
This is an even degree polynomial with a positive leading coefficient.
\So, the end behavior is
\Graph the function .
