Step-by-step explanation:
Asymptote: y = 2 y-intercept: (0,8)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given function is
f(x) = 6(0.5)^{x} + 2f(x)=6(0.5)
x
+2
This function is of the form:
f(x) = a {b}^{x} + cf(x)=ab
x
+c
where y=c is the horizontal asymptote.
By comparing , we have c=2 hence the horizontal asymptote is
y = 2y=2
To find the y-intercept, we put x=0 into the function to get:
f(0) = 6(0.5)^{0} + 2 = 6 + 2 = 8f(0)=6(0.5)
0
+2=6+2=8
Therefore the y-intercept is (0,8).
