Answer:

A

Explanation:

the leading degree(the biggest power in the function) x^4 and the leading coefficient is the number next to the highest power which is -5

so the answer should be

-5,4,x -> infinity, f(x) -> -infinity ; x -> -infinity, f(x) -> -infinity

when you get asked questions like this look for the biggest power and the number next to it. if the power is even x will always be positive if its odd x can be either positive or negative it depends on restrictions.

for instance in this example -5 * x^4 will always give you negative because -5 will multiply with a positive number x (the power is even so its always positive)
