Question

Find an equation of the slant asymptote

y=(2x^3+x^2+x+1)/(x^2+2x)

Answer 1

\[y=\frac{ 2x^3+x^2+x+1 }{ x^2+2x }\]

Answer 2

i use long division and get 2x-3+(7x+1)/(x^2+2x) and it says it's wrong

Answer 3

divide and ignore the remainder

Answer 4

in other words, you did all the work correctly but the slant asymptote is the line
\[y=2x-3\]\

Answer 5

oh okay. thanks a lot!
