Up on the left, up on the right

Up on the left, down on the right

Down on the left, up on the right

Down on the left, down on the right

Answer 1

Down on the left, up on the right

Explanation:

f(x) = x^3 + 2x^2 + 4x + 5

we look at the end behavior of given f(X)

To find the end behavior , we take the degree of of f(x) and leading coefficient

degree is 3 and it is odd

Leading coefficient that is coefficient of x^3 or 1x^3 is 1

Leading coefficient is 1

When degree is odd and leading coefficient is 1 then graph goes down on the left and up on the right
