Graph the polynomial function f(x) = -2(x-3)²(x²-16) using parts (a) through (e). (a) Determine the end behavior of the graph of the function. The graph of f behaves like y = -2x for large values of [x]. (b) Find the x- and y-intercepts of the graph of the function. The x-intercept(s) is/are 3,4,-4. The y-intercept is 288. (Simplify your answer. Type an integer or a fraction.) (c) Determine the real zeros of the function and their multiplicity. Use this information to determine whether the graph crosses or touches the x-axis at each x-intercept. The real zero(s) of f is/are 3,4,-4.
