15. Identify the type of function. State its parent function.

Answer:
This function is a cubic polynomial function, the parent function is f(x)=x^3
Step-by-step explanation:
To identify the type of function, the first step is to find the term with the highest exponent. In this case, 2x^3.
This makes it a cubic function because the highest degree term is cubed. And because there are multiple terms it is a polynomial function
The parent function is the function that is the base of the highest degree term. For example the parent function of 4x^5 would just be x^5. So there fore because the highest degree term is 2x^3 the parent function is x^3.
