Answer:

Horizontal Asymptote: x = 0

Vertical Asymptote: x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is given as $f(x)=\frac{x}{x-5}$

Horizontal asymptotes are found by equating numerator to 0 and solving for x

Vertical asymptotes are found by equating denominator to 0 and solving for x

Horizontal Asymptote:

x = 0

Vertical Asymptote:

x - 5 = 0

x = 5

Check the picture below.

$\bf \textit{total surface area of a cone}\\\\
SA=\pi r\sqrt{r^2+h^2}+\pi r^2~~
\begin{cases}
r=radius\\
h=height\\
-------\\
r=17\\
\sqrt{r^2+h^2}=12
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
SA=\pi (17)(12)+\pi (17)^2\implies SA=204\pi +289\pi \implies SA=493\pi$
