PLZ PLZ PLZ HELP: Which of the following describes the function −x4 + 1? The degree of the function is even, so the ends of the graph continue in opposite directions. Because the leading coefficient is positive, the left side of the graph continues down the coordinate plane and the right side continues upward. The degree of the function is even, so the ends of the graph continue in the same direction. Because the leading coefficient is negative, the left side of the graph continues down the coordinate plane and the right side also continues downward. The degree of the function is even, so the ends of the graph continue in opposite directions. Because the leading coefficient is negative, the left side of the graph continues up the coordinate plane and the right side continues downward. The degree of the function is even, so the ends of the graph continue in the same direction. Because the leading coefficient is positive, the left side of the graph continues up the coordinate plane and the right side also continues upward.

Can anyone help?

563blackghost:

Have you tried graphing the function?

Nickblade10:

Yeah but i just still don't get it

Nickblade10:

Do you understand it or no?

Nickblade10:

hello?

mayathegamergrl:

i can try, i do algebra honors

Nickblade10:

i would really appriacte it

mayathegamergrl:

is it -x4 or -4x?

Nickblade10:

Its x with an exponet of 4

mayathegamergrl:

oh okay

mayathegamergrl:

I would say its D, since the leading coefficient which could also be used as the y-intercept, is positive and the slope would make the line go in the same direction

mayathegamergrl:

i hope that'll help

mayathegamergrl:

You could also solve this using a function graphing calculator, i use it alot

Nickblade10:

I hope so to, thank you so much, ill tell you if i get it right.

Nickblade10:

It was wrong, but i apricate the help, at least you were kind enough to try

mayathegamergrl:

Im sorry, i tried, even tho i do love math, im not the best with functions. But your welcome

Nickblade10:

I know you tried thats why im not mad, u actually tried to help.

mayathegamergrl:

yea, but im sorry u got it incorrect

Nickblade10:

Well thx,

mayathegamergrl:

your welcome
