Find the vertical and horizontal asymptote if they exist

Hello!

Vertical asymptotes are determined by setting the denominator of a rational function to zero and then by solving for x.

Horizontal asymptotes are determined by:

1. If the degree of the numerator < degree of denominator, then the line, y = 0 is the horizontal asymptote.

2. If the degree of the numerator = degree of denominator, then y = leading coefficient of numerator / leading coefficient of denominator is the horizontal asymptote.

3. If degree of numerator > degree of denominator, then there is an oblique asymptote, but no horizontal asymptote.

To find the vertical asymptote:

2x² - 10 = 0

2(x² - 5) = 0

(x - √5)(x + √5) = 0

x = √5 and x = -√5

Graphing the equation, we realize that x = -√5 is not a vertical asymptote, so therefore, the only vertical asymptote is x = √5.

To find the horizontal asymptote:

If the degree of the numerator < degree of denominator, then the line, y = 0 is the horizontal asymptote.

Therefore, the horizontal asymptote of this function is y = 0.

Short answer: Vertical asymptote: x = √5 and horizontal asymptote: y = 0

If you have 2 different slopes what is true about the slopes
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines have different slopes, they cannot be the same line. If they share a y-intercept, that means they cross the y -axis at the same y value.  If they share an x value and corresponding y value, they intersect at that point, in this case their y-intercept.

Hope this helped!!

Simplify the equation
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

\dfrac{16x^3-37x^2-16x+37}{x^2+2}

Step-by-step explanation:

There aren't any factors that cancel (except 3x). The best you can do is multiply it out.

\displaystyle\frac{\frac{3x^2-3}{x}}{\frac{3(x^2+2)}{16x^2-37x}}=\frac{3(x^2-1)}{x}\cdot\frac{16x^2-37x}{3(x^2+2)}\\\\=\frac{x(x^2-1)(16x-37)}{x(x^2+2)}=\frac{16x^3-37x^2-16x+37}{x^2+2}

3.70+1.25+1.48= 6.43.
20-6.43=13.57
