An asymptote is a vertical horizontal or oblique line to which the graph of a function progressively approaches without ever touching it.
To answer this question we observe the graph. All the values of x and y must be identified for which the graph of the function tends to infinity.
It is observed that these values are:
x = -1
x = 3
y = 0
The first two corresponds to the equations of a vertical line. The third corresponds to horizontal line, the axis of x. It can be seen that although the graph of the function is very close to these values, it never "touches" them
That means one whole is cut into 8 parts, and one of those eight parts is considered to be one-eighth of a whole

Answer-
<em>The inverse of
is </em>

<u>Solution-</u>
The given function is,

We can get the inverse by interchanging he variable x and y among themselves and then separating each variables.
So in the inverse would be,

Taking log of both sides,

As,

Applying the same,


As,

Applying the same,

Therefore, the inverse of
is
.
The answer is 8.75 because 7 * 5 is 35 / 4 = 8.75
