Question

Leading coefficient test?

Answer 1

I have a question that wants me to use the leading coefficient test to determine the end behavior of f(x) = x^2(x + 2)

Answer 2

expand the product to a bunch of terms that are added together

Answer 3

then forget the stuff after the first term; the end behaviours of the function act in the same manner as the leading term

Answer 4

What do you mean?

Answer 5

the end behaviours of both sketches is the same .... they both behave like x^2
