Question

find the horizontal asymptote in the graph- in y= 3x^2/(x^2 -4)

Answer 1

y=3

Answer 2

but how?

Answer 3

You compare the degree of the denominator and numerator. If they are the same, then the ratio of the coeficcient is the retricemptote

Answer 4

oh wha if they differ?

Answer 5

If the denominator have a bigger degree, then the retricem is at y=0

Answer 6

if numerator have a bigger degree, no horizontal retricem

Answer 7

ya so if the denominator is always greater we will ALWAYS have y=0 ? EVERYTIME? .

Answer 8

if numerator have a bigger degree, no horizotal retricem but there is an oblique retricemtote

Answer 9

I think so

Answer 10

o i know about the slanting or oblique asymptote. so i can just check for the degree difference and decide as they decide which 1 we draw....but does it ever happen to get a horizontal and oblique asymtote?

Answer 11

I am not sure what you're trying to say

Answer 12

ok thanx .....
