Question

determining when a function is increasing
use the graph to determine the true statement about the end - behavior of the function.
as the x - values go to positive infinity, the functions values go to negative infinity.
as the x - values go to positive infinity, the functions values go to positive infinity.
as the x - values go to negative infinity, the functions values go to negative infinity.
as the x - values go to positive infinity, the functions values are equal to 0.

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze end - behavior

Observe the right - hand side of the graph (as \(x\) goes to positive infinity).
As \(x\to+\infty\), the \(y\) - values of the function go to negative infinity.

Answer:

As the \(x\) - values go to positive infinity, the function's values go to negative infinity.
