How to find vertical asymptotes and horizontal asymptotes of a rational function?

A vertical asymptote occurs when the graph of a function approaches infinity as the independent variable approaches one or more specific rational values. This happens when the denominator of a fraction becomes zero. However, the fraction has to be in its simplest form (no common monomial factor between denominator and numerator).
A horizontal asymptote usually occurs for large positive or negative values of the independent variable where the function is a fraction and the polynomials forming the numerator and denominator have the same degree.
Example: y=(x+7)/(x-1) has a vertical asymptote at x=1 and a horizontal asymptote at y=1.
Example: y=(3x²+5x+9)/(x²-1) has a vertical asymptote at x=1 and at x=-1, and a horizontal asymptote at y=3.

Answer:

Diet and behavior

These awe-inspiring giants tend to be solitary animals—with the exception of females and their cubs—but at times they do congregate. Dramatic gatherings of grizzly bears can be seen at prime Alaskan fishing spots when the salmon run upstream for summer spawning. In this season, dozens of bears may gather to feast on the fish, craving fats that will sustain them through the long winter ahead.

Brown bears dig dens for winter hibernation, often holing up in a suitable-looking hillside. Females give birth during this winter rest, often to twins.

Grizzly bears are powerful, top-of-the-food-chain predators, yet much of their diet consists of nuts, berries, fruit, leaves, and roots. Bears also eat other animals, from rodents to moose.

Despite their impressive size, grizzlies have been clocked running at 30 miles an hour. They can be dangerous to humans, particularly if surprised or if humans come between a mother and her cubs.

Habitat

Grizzlies once lived in much of western North America and even roamed the Great Plains. These animals need a lot of space—their home range can encompass up to 600 square miles—so their ideal habitat is one that is isolated from development and has plenty of food and places to dig their dens.

Though European settlement gradually eliminated the bears from much of their original habitat, grizzly populations can still be found in parts of Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, and Washington State. They’re one of the most iconic residents of Yellowstone National Park. Many grizzlies also still roam the wilds of Canada and Alaska, where hunters pursue them as big game trophies.
