Which of the following is NOT considered when determining the end behavior? Degree Number of terms Leading Coefficient What is the end behavior of the polynomial function f(x) = -3x5 + 6x3 - 12x Up Up Down Down What is the y-intercept of the function f(x) = 3x3 + 7x2 - 9x - 8 (0, 3) (0, 7) (0, -9) (0, -8) Which of the following is NOT an x-intercept of the polynomial function f(x) = x3 - 5x2 - 9x + 45 (5, 0) (3, 0) (9, 0) (-3, 0) Which of the following is NOT an x-intercept of the polynomial function f(x) = x4 - 7x3 - 18x2 (7, 0) (0, 0) (9, 0) (-2, 0) Use the coordinate plane below to graph the polynomial functionf(x) = -x3 - 4x2 +x +4 In order to receive full credit, the end behavior must be clearly represented. In order to receive full credit, the x-intercepts and y-intercept must be clearly graphed. Which of the following is true about the polynomial functionf(x) = x3 + 3x2 - 9x - 27 It has a y-intercept at (0, -9). The end behavior is considered down The function makes a "u turn" at (3, 0) The function makes a "u turn" at (-3, 0)
