Compare the number of intercepts and end behavior of an exponential function in the form of y=A(b)^x, where A > 0 and 0 < b < 1 to the polynomial where the highest degree tern is -2x^3, and the constant term is 4
-------
y = A(b)^x where A > 0 and 0< b <1
x-intercepts:: 0
end behavior:: as x goes to -oo, y goes to +oo; as x goes to +oo y goes to 0
--------------------
y = -2x^3 + 4
x-intercepts:: 1
end behavior:: as x goes to -oo y goes to +oo; as x goes to +oo y goes to -oo
