Write each polynomial function in standard form. Then classify it by degree and by number of terms and describe its end behavior.

1. y = 3x^2 - 7x^4 + 9 - x^4

2. y = (t - 2)(t + 1)(t + 1)

AAAaannndd the bot gets it wrong yet again!

NO polynomial has an asymptote!

3x^2 - 7x^4 + 9 - x^4 = -8x^4 + 3x^2 + 9
degree: 4; number of terms: 3
y → -∞ as x → ±∞

(t - 2)(t + 1)(t + 1) = t^3 - 3t - 2
y → -∞ as x → -∞
y → +∞ as x → +∞
degree: 3; number of terms: 3

1. y = x^4 - 7x^4 + 3x^2 + 9; degree: 4; number of terms: 4; end behavior: asymptote at x = 0.

2. y = t^3 - t; degree: 3; number of terms: 3; end behavior: asymptote at x = -1 and x = 2.
