Given:

Polynomial is [tex]2x^6+9x^5-7x^3-1[/tex].

Term [tex]-3x^6[/tex] is added in the given polynomial.

To find:

The end behavior of new polynomial.

Solution:

Let, [tex]P(x)=2x^6+9x^5-7x^3-1[/tex].

New polynomial is

[tex]f(x)=2x^6+9x^5-7x^3-1+(-3x^6)[/tex]

[tex]f(x)=(2x^6-3x^6)+9x^5-7x^3-1[/tex]

[tex]f(x)=-x^6+9x^5-7x^3-1[/tex]

Highest power of x is 6 which is even and leading coefficient is negative. So,

[tex]f(x)\to -\infty\text{ as }x\to -\infty[/tex]

[tex]f(x)\to -\infty\text{ as }x\to \infty[/tex]

Both ends of the graph will approach negative infinity.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

This question is based on the concept of function. Thus, correct option is A i.e. both ends of the graph will approach negative infinity.

Given:

Polynomial  is f(x) = [tex]\bold{2x^{6} +9x^{5} -7x^{3} -1}[/tex].

According to the question,

We have to added the [tex]\bold{-3x^{6}}[/tex] in polynomial and solve it further.Now the polynomial becomes,

f(x) = [tex]\bold{2x^{6} +9x^{5} -7x^{3} -1-3x^{6} }[/tex]

f(x) =[tex]\bold{-x^{6} +9x^{5} -7x^{3} -1} }[/tex]

As, we observe that  in  just above equation, the highest power of polynomial is even with negative coefficient.Thus,

If f(x) → ∞ , x → - ∞  and,

f(x) → - ∞ , x → - ∞

Therefore, we conclude that  both ends of the graph will approach negative infinity.Thus, correct option is A.
