TRUE or FALSE:
y = 2x2 - 5 is an EVEN function? Tell why or why not!
TRUE / symmetric over the y-axis
TRUE or FALSE:

7
Describe the END BEHAVIOR using 2 words:
(-3x3 +9x2 - 12)(4x2 - 1)(2x)
negative/even
Describe (using LIMIT NOTATION) the end behaviors of the following function:
y = 5x4
x--> infinity, y--> infinity
x--> negative infinity, y--> infinity
TRUE or FALSE:
f(x) = 1/5x3 + x2 + 2? Explain why or why not.
Is the following function ODD / EVEN / or NEITHER?
y = 4x3 - x
Tell how you know!
ODD
symmetric through the origin / opposite x's produce opposite y's
