Answer:
1. ( 4,-25 ) and (1, 1)
2. As x decreases without bound, f(x) increases without bound and As x increases without bound, f(x) approaches the line y=−2y=−2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Question 1: We are given the function [tex]f(x)= -3^{x-1}+2[/tex]
Substituting the value of x = 4, 1, 0 and -1.
The value of f(x) are f(4) = -25, f(1) = 1, [tex]f(0)=\frac{-5}{3}[/tex] and [tex]f(0)=\frac{17}{9}[/tex]
Hence, the points lying on the graph of [tex]f(x)= -3^{x-1}+2[/tex] are ( 4,-25 ) and ( 1,1 ).
Question 2: From the given graph, we can see that,
As [tex]x\rightarrow \infty[/tex], [tex]f(x)\rightarrow y=-2[/tex].
Also, as [tex]x\rightarrow -\infty[/tex], [tex]f(x)\rightarrow \infty[/tex].
Hence, we get that according to the options,
As x decreases without bound, f(x) increases without bound and As x increases without bound, f(x) approaches the line y=−2y=−2.
