Answer:
The vertical intercepts is
(4/3,0) (3,0) (1,0)
The horinzontial intercepts is
(0,72)
The end behavior is
<em>as x approaches positive infinity, f(x) approaches negative infinity. As x approaches negative infinity, f(x) approaches negative infinity.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertical or y intercepts will be zeroes of the following factors.
We solve for x each time.
Part B). We need to find the intercepts by setting the equation equal to zero.
The constant expanded will equal 72.
If x=0,
where y is any real number.
So this means all the exponets will equal 0. The constant will just add to the term. so our horinzontal intercept is
Part C) End Behavior
The leading degree is even. Even Degree Polynomials like Quadratics tend to go approach positive infinity vertically as x approaches positive infinity, and as x approaches negative infinity, it approaches positive infinity vertically.
Our leading coefficient is negative so this means our quadratic will get reflected across the x axis.
Now this means, as x approaches positive infinity, f(x) approaches negative infinity. As x approaches negative infinity, f(x) approaches negative infinity.
