Function End Behaviour (Polynomials) - Behaviour to Power and Coefficient

This math topic focuses on understanding the end behavior of polynomial functions based on their degree (highest power) and leading coefficient. It involves determining how these functions behave as x approaches positive or negative infinity and predicting the corresponding effects on function values, or y-values. The problems presented require students to analyze equations or descriptions to match them with specific polynomial characteristics that result in the given end behaviors. This practice helps in deepening the understanding of how polynomial functions behave as they stretch toward infinity in either direction on the x-axis.
