Solution Steps

  1. Understand the question

    ○ c. {y|y ≠ } (use a comma to separate answers as needed.)
    ○ d. {y|y < }
    ○ e. all real numbers

    the y-intercept of the function $f(x)=5\\cdot8^{x}$ is 5.
    (type an integer or a decimal.)

    the asymptote of $f(x)=5\\cdot8^{x}$ is .
    (type an equation.)

  2. Explanation

    Step1: Recall exponential function properties

    For $f(x)=a \cdot b^x$ where $a>0, b>1$, the horizontal asymptote is the line that the function approaches but never touches as $x\to-\infty$.

    Step2: Evaluate limit as $x\to-\infty$

    $\lim_{x \to -\infty} 5 \cdot 8^x = 5 \cdot \lim_{x \to -\infty} 8^x = 5 \cdot 0 = 0$
    This means the function approaches $y=0$.

  3. Final answer

    $y=0$

Answer

Explanation

Step1: Recall exponential function properties

For $f(x)=a \cdot b^x$ where $a>0, b>1$, the horizontal asymptote is the line that the function approaches but never touches as $x\to-\infty$.

Step2: Evaluate limit as $x\to-\infty$

$\lim_{x \to -\infty} 5 \cdot 8^x = 5 \cdot \lim_{x \to -\infty} 8^x = 5 \cdot 0 = 0$
This means the function approaches $y=0$.

Answer

$y=0$
