\"\"

\

The rational function is \"\".

\

Write the function in lowest terms:

\

\"\"

\

\"\"

\

\

Find the vertical asymptote by equating the denominator to zero.

\

\"\" is vertical asymptote.

\

\

Find the horizontal asymptote:

\

First find the degree of the numerator and degree of the denominator.

\

Degree of the numerator \"\" and degree of the denominator \"\".

\

Since the degree of the numerator is greater degree of the denominator,

\

then \"\" is improper.

\

If \"\" the degree of numerator is \"\" or more greater than the degree of denominator,

\

the quotient obtained is a polynomial of degree \"\" or higher and \"\" has neither a horizontal

\

or oblique asymptote.

\

Since the degree of numerator is \"\" or more greater than the degree of denominator the

\

function has neither a horizontal or oblique asymptote.

\

\"\"

\

Vertical asymptote: \"\".

\

No horizontal or oblique asymptote.
