document.write( "To answer this question, you should apply your knowledge of Calculus.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "The Calculus says that in the numerator, when  x --> \"-infinity\",  the term \"4%5E%28-x%29\"  dominates \r\n" );
document.write( "and goes to infinity much fster than \"x%5E2\" does.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "In the denominator,  when  x --> \"-infinity\",  the term  \"x%5E2\"  dominates comparing with  \"4%5Ex\".\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Therefore, in whole, as x goes to  \"-infinity\",  the given function behaves as  \"4%5E%28-x%29%2Fx%5E2\".\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "When  x --> \"-infinity\",  the numerator of this reduced fraction goes to infinity much faster than the denominator.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "It gives the ANSWER:  the given function goes to \"infinity\"  as  x --> \"-infinity\".\r\n" );
