Hi,

there are several "issues" here. First of all

(x - 50000)^4.51846

is complex for x<50000, e.g.

(x - 50000)^4.51846 /. x -> 2
is -9.88935*10^19 + 1.70333*10^21 I.

Plot does not plot complex numbers.The "interesting part of your graph is for x>50000.

Also, you should plot f[x] instead of "f".

f[x_] := ((x - 50000)^4.51846) (E^(50000 - x)) (4.6924^-7)
Plot[f[x], {x, 50000, 50050}, PlotRange -> All]

does work and gives a reasonable output:

So, if you plot it for x< 50000 it will not produce a useful output, because the Plot function is not made to plot complex functions.

Furthermore, the values that you want to plot are insanely large. Look at this:

Table[Evaluate[f[x]], {x, 0, 5}]

{-1.046106944790515*10^21730 + 
  1.801802763355185*10^21731 I, -3.848064616838928*10^21729 + 
  6.627862949115713*10^21730 I, -1.415495933981097*10^21729 + 
  2.438034178117325*10^21730 I, -5.206847948258534*10^21728 + 
  8.968215982373779*10^21729 I, -1.915319207666480*10^21728 + 
  3.298924128423410*10^21729 I, -7.045428821964528*10^21727 + 
  1.213496687279907*10^21729 I}

In the interesting regime 50000<x<50050 the values are very small. It will be difficult to have a reasonable representation over the entire domain.

I do not know why it returned GraphicsComplex instead of Line here. btw, you need to use := not = in the function definition. When asking questions, it helps to post complete self contained code you used all in one cell. This helps someone see what you actually typed. Include all definitions and commands used.
