Given:

The limit problem is:


\lim_(x\to -\infty)(-2x^5-3x+1)

To find:

The value of the given limit problem.

Solution:

We have,


\lim_(x\to -\infty)(-2x^5-3x+1)

In the function
-2x^5-3x+1, the degree of the polynomial is 5, which is an odd number and the leading coefficient is -2, which is a negative number.

So, the function approaches to positive infinity as x approaches to negative infinity.


\lim_(x\to -\infty)(-2x^5-3x+1)=\infty

Therefore,
\lim_(x\to -\infty)(-2x^5-3x+1)=\infty.
