The function that is growing at the fastest rate is p(x) = 12x^3 + 9.
This is a cubic function, meaning that x is raised to the third power. This is the only function that is raised to the third power, so it will increase the fastest.

The least common multiple of 5 and 10 is 10. Convert 4/5 and 9/10 to fractions with denominators of 10.
