Answer:

3. The correct option is A.

4. The correct option is C.

5. The correct option is C.

6. The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

3.

The given function is

[tex]f(x)=\frac{3}{2}\cdot (\frac{4}{5})^x[/tex]

[tex]lim_{x\rightarrow -\infty}f(x)=lim_{x\rightarrow -\infty}\frac{3}{2}\cdot (\frac{4}{5})^x[/tex]

[tex]lim_{x\rightarrow -\infty}f(x)=\frac{3}{2}\cdot (\frac{4}{5})^{-\infty}=\infty[/tex]

The function approaches to ∞ as x approaches to -∞.

[tex]lim_{x\rightarrow \infty}f(x)=lim_{x\rightarrow \infty}\frac{3}{2}\cdot (\frac{4}{5})^x[/tex]

[tex]lim_{x\rightarrow \infty}f(x)=\frac{3}{2}\cdot (\frac{4}{5})^{\infty}=0[/tex]

The function approaches to 0 as x approaches to ∞.

Therefore option A is correct.

4.

The given function is

[tex]g(x)=-6(5)^x[/tex]

The exponential function is in the form of

[tex]f(x)=ab^x[/tex]

If a<0, then f(x) is a negative function and if a>0, then f(x) is a positive function.

If |b|>1, then f(x) is a increasing function and if |b|<1, then f(x) is a decreasing function.

Since a=-6<0 and b=5>1, therefore f(x) is a negative and increasing function.

Option C is correct.

5.

From the given graph it is noticed that the graph passing through the points (-1,-8) and (1,-2).

We have to find the slope of graph from -1 to 1.

[tex]m=\frac{f(x_2)-f(x_1)}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Slope of function form -1 to 1 is

[tex]m=\frac{f(1)-f(-1)}{1-(-1)}=\frac{-2-(-8)}{1-(-1)}=\frac{6}{2}=3[/tex]

Therefore option C is correct.

6.

The y-intercept is 2 it means at x=0, the value of y is 2.

[tex]f(x)=3^{2x}=3^{2(0)}=3^0=1[/tex]

[tex]g(x)=3^x+1=3^0+1=1+1=2[/tex]

[tex]h(x)=3^x+2=3^0+2=1+2=3[/tex]

[tex]j(x)=3*2^x=3*2^0=3[/tex]

Since g(x) has y-intercept 2, therefore option B is correct.
