The end behavior of the graph of the function f(x) = -5(4x - 2) as x approaches infinity can be described as follows:
As x approaches infinity (or positive infinity), the value of 4x becomes infinitely large compared to the constant -2. Therefore, we can ignore the constant (-2) and simplify the function as f(x) = -5(4x) = -20x.
Since the coefficient of x is negative (-20), the graph of the function will decrease without bound as x approaches infinity. In other words, the function will approach negative infinity (or -∞) as x becomes infinitely large.
Similarly, as x approaches negative infinity, the value of 4x becomes infinitely large in the negative direction. Thus, we can simplify the function as f(x) = -5(4x) = -20x.
Since the coefficient of x is negative (-20), the graph of the function will also decrease without bound as x approaches negative infinity. Therefore, the function will approach negative infinity (or -∞) as x becomes infinitely negative.
