Important: express those exponentials using the symbol " ^ ."
Thus:
f(x) = 14 + 2x^2 − 13x^3 − x^4
Then, the limit of f(x) → as x → −∞
is negative infinity. the x^4 term dominates all the other terms, and because x^4 is negative, the final limit will be negative (negative infinity).
Thus:
f(x) = 14 + 2x^2 − 13x^3 − x^4
Then, the limit of f(x) → as x → −∞
is negative infinity. the x^4 term dominates all the other terms, and because x^4 is negative, the final limit will be negative (negative infinity).
This is the function written in descending order of power:
[tex]f(x)=- x^{4} -13 x^{3} +2 x^{2} +14[/tex]
And since the highest power is 4 this function behaves like a quadratic (U-shaped).
If the leading coefficient of the function is positive the graph looks like U but if it is negative it looks like ∩.
[tex]f(x)=- x^{4} -13 x^{3} +2 x^{2} +14[/tex]
It is negative so the graph is heading towards -∞ on both sides.
[tex]f(x)[/tex]→-∞ as x→-∞
