Slant (oblique) asymptotes Complete the following steps for the given functions.
- a. Use polynomial long division to find the slant asymptote of f.
- b. Find the vertical asymptotes of f.
- c. Graph f and all its asymptotes with a graphing utility. Then sketch a graph of the function by hand, correcting any errors appearing in the computer-generated graph.

- Describe an asymptote, and explain when a rational function will have (a) a vertical asymptote and (b) a horizontal asymptote.arrow_forward(a) Rewrite f(x)=2x2+8x7 in f(x)=a(xh)2+k form and (b) graph the function using properties.arrow_forwardIf the graph of a rational function has a removablediscontinuity, what must be true of the functionalrule?arrow_forward
- If a polynomial function of degree n has n distinctzeros, what do you know about the graph of thefunction?arrow_forwardDetermine if the statement is true or false. If the statement is false, then correct it and make it true. The graph of a rational function will never cross a horizontal asymptote.arrow_forwardWhat can we conclude if, in general, the graph of apolynomial function exhibits the following endbehavior? As x,f(x) and as x,f(x).arrow_forward
