The left end approaches infinity, and the right end approaches 0.

The image contains a question about the end behavior of a given function:


\[ f(x) = 10(0.75)^x \]

This is an exponential decay function because the base of the exponent, 0.75, is between 0 and 1. Here's how to determine the end behavior:

- As
\( x \to \infty \) (to the right),
\( (0.75)^x \) approaches 0, because any number less than 1 raised to an increasingly large exponent will get closer and closer to 0. So, the right end of the graph of
\( f(x) \) will approach 0.

- As
\( x \to -\infty \) (to the left),
\( (0.75)^x \) grows without bound because raising a number between 0 and 1 to a negative exponent results in a fraction with a numerator of 1 and a very small denominator, which becomes a very large number. Therefore, the left end of the graph will approach infinity.

So, the complete statement would be:

The left end approaches infinity, and the right end approaches 0.
