ASAP What is the horizontal asymptote of this graph?

and

What is the y-intercept? What does this mean in terms of the snake population?

9514 1404 393

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial value of this function is the y-intercept, marked as (0, 5). The label on the graph tells you this is the snake population in year 0.

__

We note that the snake population goes up by a factor of 2 for each increase of 1 in the number of years. This indicates the function is an exponential function with a base of 2.

  y = 5·2^t

Any exponential function will have a horizontal asymptote of y = 0.
