The degree and the sign of the leading coefficient (positive or negative) of a polynomial determines the behavior of the ends for the graph. Enter the polynomial function into a graphing calculator or online graphing tool to determine the end behavior. f(x) = -2x² + 3x

• As x goes to negative infinity, y goes to positive infinity. As x goes to positive infinity, y goes to positive infinity.

• As x goes to negative infinity, y goes to positive infinity. As x goes to positive infinity, y goes to negative infinity.

• As x goes to negative infinity, y goes to negative infinity. As x goes to positive infinity, y goes to positive infinity.

• As x goes to negative infinity, y goes to negative infinity. As x goes to positive infinity, y goes to negative infinity.

List the zeros for this function.

• x= -4, x=3, x= -2

• x= -4, x=3, x=2

• x= -4, x=-3, x=2

Remember to look at your roots, multiplicity, and end behavior!! Use your notes!

• y = ^_(x + 2)(x - 1)²

• y = -(x - 2)(x + 1)²

• y = (x - 2)(x + 1)²

• y = -x³
