The function \( f(x) = e^{0.5x} + 324e^{-0.5x} \) is defined for all real numbers, making its domain \( (-\infty, \infty) \). This means you can plug any value of \( x \) into the function and get a valid output. Now, regarding intercepts, since the function is never equal to zero (as both terms are always positive), it has no \( x \)-intercepts. Another interesting aspect to consider: as \( x \) approaches negative infinity, \( e^{-0.5x} \) dominates and the function goes towards positive infinity. At \( x = 0 \), \( f(0) = 1 + 324 = 325 \). Thus, it has a minimum value at \( x = 0 \) and increases towards positive infinity, emphasizing its balance of growth.
