Answer:

(c) f(x) is an even degree polynomial with a positive leading coefficient.

Step-by-step explanation:

The leading terms of the two functions are ...

f(x): x² (even degree, positive coefficient: 1)

g(x): x³ (odd degree, positive coefficient: 1)

Then it is true that ...

f(x) is an even degree polynomial with a positive leading coefficient
