Question

Find the power function that the graph of f resembles for large values of |x|.
f(x)=(x+3)^4(x-3)^2

A. y=x^4
B. y=x^8
C. y=x^6
D. y=x^2
please help.

Answer 1

HI!!

Answer 2

pick the one with the same degree

Answer 3

What do you mean with the same degree?

Answer 4

if you multiplied \(f(x)=(x+3)^4(x-3)^2\) out, what would the highest exponent be? (you don't have to multiply it to see the answer)

Answer 5

Ok, so would you add the 4 and 2 or would you multiply the 4 and 2?

Answer 6

when you multiply you would add the exponents

Answer 7

so it's y=x^6

Answer 8

yes
