Y=0 would be a horizontal line.  An asymptote is a line that a function approaches, but never reaches.  Exponential functions such as these are a smooth curve.  If both numbers are positive numbers greater than or equal to 1, the curve increases.  If at least one of the numbers is a positive number between 0 and 1, the curve decreases.  If <em>a</em> is a negative number, the curve decreases as well.  If either <em>a</em> or <em>b</em> is zero, then the graph would stay constant at 0.  However, as long as neither <em>a</em> nor <em>b</em> is zero, then this graph will never touch that point.  The only way to get an answer of y=0 is to multiply by 0.  If neither <em>a</em> nor <em>b</em> is zero, this won't happen.

If f(x)=25-x^2 and g(x)=x+5, what is (f/g)(x)? Write your answer in the simplest form.
Flura [38]
F(x) = -x² + 25
g(x) = x + 5

(f ÷ g)(x) = ⁻ˣ²⁺²⁵/ₓ₊₅
(f ÷ g)(x) = ⁻¹⁽ˣ⁺⁵⁾⁽ˣ⁻⁵⁾/ₓ₊₅
(f ÷ g)(x) = -x + 5
