Which statement is true about the end behavior of the graphed function?
a.As the x-values go to positive infinity, the function's values go to negative infinity.
b.As the x-values go to zero, the function's values go to positive infinity.
c.As the x-values go to negative infinity, the function's values are equal to zero
d.As the x-values go to positive infinity, the function's values go to positive infinity.

Which statement is true about the end behavior of the graphed function? a.As the x-values go to positive infinity, the function's values go to negative infinity class=

Answer :

Look at the positive side of x axis  
as x approaches infinity  so does the value of the function

d is correct

Answer with explanation:

The given curve has two vertical Asymptote,

First, x=2

And,Second , x= -2

So,the equation of the curve can be written as

1.

 [tex]f(x)=\frac{k}{(x-2)(x+2)}\\\\ f(x)=\frac{k}{x^2-4}\\\\ Now,\lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{k}{x^2-4}= \frac{k}{(\infty)^2-4}\\\\\lim_{x \to \infty} f(x)=\frac{k}{\infty}=0[/tex]

,2.

[tex]\lim_{x \to -\infty} f(x)= \lim_{x \to -\infty}\frac{k}{x^2-4}\\\\=\frac{k}{(-\infty)^2-4} \\\\ =\frac{k}{\infty} \\\\=0[/tex]

3.

[tex]\lim_{x \to 0} f(x)= \lim_{x \to 0}\frac{k}{x^2-4}\\\\=\frac{k}{(0)^2-4} \\\\ =\frac{k}{-4}[/tex]

Option C: As the x-values go to negative infinity, the function's values are equal to zero
