Question

The asymptote of the function f(x) = 3x + 1 – 2 is ___. Its y-intercept is ___.

Answer 1

The only way this could have an asymptote, either horizontal, vertical, or oblique is if it is a rational function, proper or improper. This function is linear:
y=3x-1 is what it simplifies to and it is a straight line through the y axis at -1 and has a positive slope of 3. There are no asymptotes here. But the y intercept, like I stated, is (0, -1)
