Answer:
The graph is attached below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function
Since the leading term of the polynomial (the term in a polynomial that contains the highest power of the variable) is -5x⁴, then the degree is 4, i.e. even, and the leading coefficient is -5, i.e. negative.
This means that f(x) → −∞ as x → −∞ and f(x)→−∞ as x→∞.
