What does the leading coefficient test determine? For example, if you test the function [tex] f(x)=2x^{2}+3x+1[/tex] does the leading coefficient test tell you that the leading coefficient is 2?
Also, why does the leading coefficient determine whether the graph eventuall rises or falls? and why does it determine *only* the right and left behavior of the grpah? I just don't get it...
I only know that the leading coefficient's degree determines whether the graph is even or odd and therefore where it falls/rises.
