Thread: End behavior

I have to find the zeros, vertical assymptotes and end behavior of the functions, how do i find the end behavior?

a) f(x)=x^-7
vertical asymptote at x=0
there are no zeros since it does not cross the x-axis

b)g(x)=4/x⁸
ver. asym. at x=0
there are no zeros since it does not cross the x-axis

c)h(x)=2*3^x+2

So that means...

I'm not certain what "end behavior" is either. Can you find the definition in your text?

The "end behavior" is the "behavior" or what happens to the function in the limit as x goes to infinity or negative infinity.
