The discussion revolves around finding horizontal asymptotes for the function f(x)=(8-4x)e^x. Participants are exploring the behavior of the function as x approaches positive infinity.
Some participants have suggested approaches involving L'Hospital's Rule, while others have pointed out that there may not be a horizontal asymptote as x approaches positive infinity. The discussion is ongoing with various interpretations being explored.
There is an acknowledgment that the original poster believes the answer is 0, but there is a lack of consensus on the existence of a horizontal asymptote as x approaches positive infinity.
Robert1986 said:Do you see how you might be able to re-write this and then use L'Hospital's Rule?
Edit:
Just as a side note, I hope you realize that there is no horizontal asymptote as x goes to positive infinity.
