Analyzing the End Behavior of the Polynomial Function

To analyze the behavior of the polynomial function

we will examine its leading term, degree, and overall nature of the function.

 

1.Identify the Leading Term:

The leading term is .

 

2.Determine the Degree and Coefficient:

The degree of the polynomial is 4 (an even number).

The leading coefficient is ( 3 ) (which is positive).

 

3.End Behavior:

For even-degree polynomials with a positive leading coefficient:

As (
