What is the horizontal asymptote of the function f(x)= -2x/x+1

<u>Answer:</u>

-2

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We have been given a function f(x)=\frac{-2x}{x+1} and we are asked to find the horizontal asymptote of our given function.

Recalling the rules for a horizontal asymptote:

1. If the numerator and denominator have equal degree, the horizontal asymptote will be the ratio of the leading coefficients.

2. If the polynomial of denominator has larger degree than the numerator, then the horizontal asymptote will be the x-axis or y=0.

3. If the polynomial of numerator has larger degree than denominator, then the function has no horizontal asymptote.

Here, the numerator and denominator are of the same degree. So the horizontal asymptote will be the ratio of the coefficients.

Horizontal asymptote = -\frac{2}{1} = -2

alexgriva [62]
Each multiple choice question would be 5 points. For Louann she got 14 of the questions correct so 5 x 14 = 70 and 70 + 24 would be 94. For Carla she got 16 of the questions correct so 5 x 16 = 80 and 80 + 14 = 94. You're answer would be 5, hopefully this helps :)
