Hello,

The graphed function is y=2+2^x

lim (2+2^x) =2 if x->-infinity

lim (2+2^x) =+infinity if x->+infinity

Answer:

As
x\rightarrow \infty;
f(x)\rightarrow \infty

As
x\rightarrow -\infty;f(x)\rightarrow 0

Explanation:

We have been given a function. We are asked to determine the end behavior of the given function.

We can see that our given function is an exponential function
f(x)=e^x.

We know that domain of
f(x)=e^x is
(-\infty,\infty) and range is
(0,\infty).

We know that for the very big positive values of x, our function will approach positive infinity.

For very large negative values of x, our function approaches 0.

As
x\rightarrow \infty;
f(x)\rightarrow \infty

As
x\rightarrow -\infty;f(x)\rightarrow 0
