To Describe: The degree and leading coefficient of the graph of the polynomial function.
The degree of the polynomial function is even, and the leading coefficient is negative.
Given Graph:
Concept Used:
In a graph if left end of the graph falls and right end also falls: the degree of the equation will be even, and the leading coefficient will be negative.
Description:
From the graph of the polynomial function, it is observed that
The end behaviour of the polynomial is
The degree should be even and the leading coefficient should be negative.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the degree of the polynomial function is even and the leading coefficient is negative.
