HELP (PRE-CALC.) • Find the domain of f. • Identify any vertical asymptotes of the graph of y=f(x). • Identify any holes in the graph. • Find the horizontal asymptote, if it exists. • Find the slant asymptote, if it exists. • Graph the function using a graphing utility and describe the behavior near the asymptotes. f(x)=x/3x-6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the domain is (-oo,2)U(2,oo) vertical retricemptope is x=2

HOW DO YOU FIGURE OUT THE HORIZONTAL ASYMPTOTES

@Mertsj help him,.please, wait for what?

OpenStudy (mertsj):

hang on. I will

thank you

THANKS

1. If the degree of the numerator is less than the degree of the denominator then y = 0 is a horizontal asymptote. 2. If the degree of the numerator is equal to the degree of the denominator then y=coefficient of leading term of numerator/coefficient of leading term of denominator is a horizontal asymptote. 3. If the degree of the numerator is greater than the degree of the denominator, there is no horizontal asymptote.

OpenStudy (mertsj):

So in your case, x is the leading term in both numerator and denominator. So the degrees are equal. Also both have coefficient 1 and 1/1 = 1 so y =1 is the horizontal asymptote.
