Answer:

  1. quartic polymomial with negative leading coefficient
  2. scaled 1/x function with horizontal offset

Step-by-step explanation:

The wiggles of section 1 can be attributed to a number of different functions. Perhaps the simplest is a 4th-degree polynomial. In order to have downward-trending end behavior, it would need to have a negative leading coefficient.

__

The curve of section 2 looks like it might be a scaled and translated version of 1/x, or it could be an exponential function. The latter would be expected to approach the horizontal asymptote more quickly than shown here, so we prefer a version of 1/x.
