Look at these two functions

f(x) = -x^2-x-6

g(x) = (x+1)(x^2+6x+9)

a. Which function changes direction more times and by how much?

b. Which function touches the x-axis more times and by how much?

c. At what points do each function touch the x-axis?

d. How does the end behavior of each function compare to one another?
