1. The problem asks for the end behavior of the function $y = f(x)$ based on its graph. 2. End behavior describes how the function behaves as $x$ approaches positive infinity ($x \to +\infty$) and negative infinity ($x \to -\infty$). 3. From the graph description: - As $x \to -\infty$, the graph starts from the top-left, meaning $f(x) \to +\infty$. - As $x \to +\infty$, the graph rises sharply towards the top-right, meaning $f(x) \to +\infty$. 4. Therefore, the end behavior is: - $$\lim_{x \to -\infty} f(x) = +\infty$$ - $$\lim_{x \to +\infty} f(x) = +\infty$$ 5. In plain language, as you move far to the left on the x-axis, the function values go up very high, and as you move far to the right, the function values also go up very high.
