Answer:
y = 3x -1
Step-by-step explanation:
When the given points are dilated by a factor of 1/5 about the origin, each of the coordinate values is multiplied by 1/5. The points after dilation are ...
... (2/5, 1/5), (-1/5, -8/5)
The line through these points can be found starting with a 2-point form of the equation for the line.
... y -y1 = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)·(x -x1)
Filling in the point values gives ...
... y -1/5 = (-8/5 -1/5)/(-1/5 -2/5)(x -2/5)
... y = (-9/5)/(-3/5)(x -2/5) +1/5 . . . . simplify parentheses, add 1/5
... y = 3x -1 . . . . . simplify
_____
The graph shows the original points and the line through them in red, and the dilated points and line in green.
when the degree of the numerator is greater than the denominator's, then it has no horizontal asymptotes.
quick note:
when the degree of the numerator is 1 higher than the degree of the denominator, then it has an slant-asymptote, so this one has a slant-asymptote.
