help please. analyze the graph of the function f(x)=(x^2-9x-10)/(x+5). What is the domain of F(x)? what is the equation of the vertical asymptote(s)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

vertical asymptote at \(x=-5\) where the denominator is zero domain is all real numbers except \(x=-5\) graph looks like this http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=%28x^2-9x-10%29%2F%28x%2B5%29

thank you wha eould the horizontal asymptote be ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wouldnt it be 9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there is no horizontal asymptote since the degree of the numerator is larger than the degree of the denominator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you can also see it from the graph

ok thank you so much
