Need help with this thanks

Horizontal asymptote at  tells us that the original graph has been translated down.since  ,  are positive.  also we can say that the point  has a smaller  -coordinate than  .this means that the  transformed exponential function is increasing as it goes to the right. as it goes from  to , the value of the exponential function increases. it goes from to something bigger, . therefore, as  . the left hand would be the side that approaches the horizontal asymptote.so the answer is d

Some connecting rods have to lubricate the cylinder wall or piston pin. the answer is letter d. graphite coating can be a major  additive to many  coating  systems and things such as connecting rods.  it functions as a refractory, lubricant, thermal conductor, and electrical conductor for a machine or thing to enhance its work.

Cis the answer i pretty sure
