Beyond the Answer
As \( t \rightarrow -\infty \), the leading term \( t^9 \) dominates the behavior of the polynomial function. Since the degree of the polynomial is odd and the coefficient of the leading term is positive, \( f(t) \) approaches \( -\infty \). As \( t \rightarrow \infty \), again the leading term \( t^9 \) dictates the behavior of the polynomial. With a positive coefficient for the leading term, \( f(t) \) approaches \( +\infty \).
