Find all vertical and slant asymptotes (if any) of the function: f(x) = x^3/(x^2-4x+4)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

definitly a veritcal asymptote at 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to find the slant asymptote, divide

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or just turn sideways

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

slant, sideways........fail joke

OpenStudy (anonymous):

when you divide you will get \[x+4+\frac{\text{stuff}}{(x-2)^2}\]and the slant asymptote is \[y=x+4\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ah i am a little slow. slant!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol stuff.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Divide with long division?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah long division, but you can stop after you get \[x+4\] because the remainder is unimportant for the slant
