Answer:
f is sometimes positive and sometimes negative on the interval
Step-by-step explanation:
So if you were to expand out the x's you would have x^2 * x * x * x which will result in x^5. and because the leading coefficient is positive, it will be going towards positive infinity as x goes towards positive infinity, and because the degree is odd the end behaviors will be opposite, so as x goes towards negative infinity the value of f(x) will be going towards negative infinity. One other thing to note is that because x^2 technically is two zeroes, with the same value, the zero at x=0 has a multiplicity of 2, meaning that it will not cross the x-axis, but rather have a turning point, once it intersects the x-axis, because the zero has an even multiplicity. Given this information we can draw a graph. So as you can see in the graph, it will sometimes be negative and sometimes positive
