Using limits, the correct option regarding the end behavior of the function is given by:

A. as x→∞, y→−∞ as x→−∞, y→−∞.

How to find the end behavior of a function f(x)?

The end behavior is found calculating the limit of f(x) as x goes to infinity.

For this problem, the equation is given by:

[tex]f(x) = -x^6 - 6x^5 + 50x^3 + 45x^2 - 108x - 108[/tex]

Since x goes to infinity, we consider only the term with the highest exponent, hence the limits are given as follows:

[tex]\lim_{x \rightarrow -\infty} f(x) = \lim_{x \rightarrow -\infty} -x^6 - 6x^5 + 50x^3 + 45x^2 - 108x - 108 = \lim_{x \rightarrow -\infty} -x^6 = -(-\infty)^6 = -\infty[/tex]

[tex]\lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} f(x) = \lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} -x^6 - 6x^5 + 50x^3 + 45x^2 - 108x - 108 = \lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} -x^6 = -(\infty)^6 = -\infty[/tex]

Hence the correct option is:

A. as x→∞, y→−∞ as x→−∞, y→−∞.
