Problem 1. What is the long run behavior of the following polynomial function? (Or, how do the graphs of polynomial look like in long run?) f(x)=2x^2-x+1 b) f(x)=x^100+x^50-2 c) f(x)=3x^7-x^5+x

To determine the long-run behavior of polynomial functions, we need to consider the leading term, which is the term with the highest power of x.a) For the polynomial function , the leading term is . Since the coefficient of the leading term is positive, the graph of the polynomial will rise to positive infinity as x approaches positive infinity and will rise to positive infinity as x approaches negative infinity.b) For the polynomial function , the leading term is . Since the coefficient of the leading term is positive, the graph of the polynomial will rise to positive infinity as x approaches positive infinity and will rise to positive infinity as x approaches negative infinity.c) For the polynomial function , the leading term is . Since the coefficient of the leading term is positive, the graph of the polynomial will rise to positive infinity as x approaches positive infinity and will fall to negative infinity as x approaches negative infinity.In summary, the long-run behavior of polynomial functions depends on the sign of the coefficient of the leading term. If the coefficient is positive, the graph will rise to positive infinity as x approaches positive infinity and will rise to positive infinity as x approaches negative infinity. If the coefficient is negative, the graph will fall to negative infinity as x approaches positive infinity and will fall to negative infinity as x approaches negative infinity.
