Question

Determine the end behavior of P(x)=3x

Answer 1

Answer:

As x ⇒-∞, P(x) ⇒ -∞

As x ⇒ ∞, P(x) ⇒ ∞

Step-by-step explanation:

To find left hand end behavior, plug in negative infinity into the function and evaluate...

P(x) = 3(-∞) = -3(∞) = -∞

  The 'y' values of the function decrease towards negative infinity as the 'x' values approach negative infinity

P(x) = 3(∞) = ∞

  The 'y' values of the function increase towards positive infinity as the 'x' values approach positive infinity
