Question

WILL GIVE MEDAL + FAN IF ANSWER.

What is the end behavior of the graph of the polynomial function y = 10x9 – 4x?

Answer 1

what kind of answer are you looking for its an odd function where one end goes to negative infinity and one goes to infinity

Answer 2

For the end behavior, only the term with the highest exponent matters. Then just look at what that term does at a very large positive value of \(x\) and at a very large negative value of \(x\).

Answer 3

As x -> __ y -> __ and as x -> __ y -> __

Answer 4

End behavior is what y does as x goes to positive and negative infinity

Answer 5

as x goes to negative infinity y goes to negative infinity and as x goes to positive infinity y goes to positive infinity

Answer 6

it may help for you to look up some common odd functions and watch how they behave vs even functions

Answer 7

Oh, okay I understand it now. I overthinked it a lot.

Answer 8

Thank you!
