Question

use the graph of the rational function to complete the following statement. as ( x
ightarrow3^{-},r(x)
ightarrow ) as ( x
ightarrow3^{-},f(x)
ightarrowsquare )

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the graph behavior

When \(x\to3^{-}\), we observe the trend of the graph as \(x\) approaches \(3\) from the left - hand side.

Step2: Determine the limit value

From the graph, as \(x\) approaches \(3\) from the left (\(x\to3^{-}\)), the function values \(f(x)\) tend to \(-\infty\).

Answer:

\(-\infty\)
