Given • D(x) = 0 produces • Vertical Asymptotes: If factor doesn’t cancel with N(x). • Hole: If factor cancels with N(x). D(x) = 0 x2 + 4x + 3 = 0 (x + 1)(x + 3)=0 Vertical Asymptote (x + 1)=0 (x + 3)=0 Hole x = -1 x = -3
Horizontal Asymptotes: Start by looking at the degree of N(x) & D(x). < = Deg. Deg N(x) D(x) > Deg Deg N(x) D(x) Deg Deg N(x) D(x) y = 0 (x-axis) NONE (Oblique asymptote & need to divide) y = an/bn (Fraction of Leading Coefficients.)
