Math Problem Statement
Solution
The graph shown in the image represents an exponential growth function. In exponential functions of the form , the horizontal asymptote typically corresponds to the value of , as approaches negative infinity.
From the graph, we can see that the curve approaches as moves towards negative infinity. Therefore, the horizontal asymptote of this exponential function is:
So, the correct answer is .
