Answer:

A. Both ends go down.

General Formulas and Concepts:

Algebra II

  • End behavior - what the y-values are approaching as x approaches negative infinity or infinity

Explanation:

If we graph the function, we can see that when x goes to -∞, y also goes to -∞.

We also see that when x goes to ∞, y still goes to -∞.

Therefore, both ends of the graph would head towards -∞, making A. the correct answer choice.
