Question

QUICK HELP! PLEASE!

Based on the table, which best predicts the end behavior of the graph of f(x)?

As x → ∞, f(x) → ∞, and as x → –∞, f(x) → ∞.
As x → ∞, f(x) → ∞, and as x → –∞, f(x) → –∞.
As x → ∞, f(x) → –∞, and as x → –∞, f(x) → ∞.
As x → ∞, f(x) → –∞, and as x → –∞, f(x) → –∞

Answer 1

C

Answer 2

In the Figure bellow are shown the plotted points. The graph of the function represented by the Table passes through the origin. As you can see, if x → ∞ then f(x) → -∞. On the other hand, if x → -∞ then f(x) → +∞. Therefore, the correct answer is:

As x → ∞, f(x) → -∞, and as x → -∞, f(x) → ∞.
