OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

Do you have answer choices?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

quadratic,cubic,linear,rational

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

Looks like a rational one to be because it's obeying asymptotes.

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

It's not linear because its not a line. Its not quadratic or cubic because it doesnt have humps.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is rational with asymptote at some value of x= 3 (isn't it?) so may be, the denominator has (x-3) and since the horizontal asymptote is y=0 (x-axis) we can say that, the degree of numerator is less than the degree of the denominator already...

A cubit function will have 3 humps like this |dw:1373222515243:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the question is multiple choice and those are the only choices that i gave you

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

A linear function is just a line. |dw:1373222547851:dw|

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

Quadratic Function is a parabola |dw:1373222579879:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@jasonfichter pls post the choices..

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

And a rational function will be obeying asymptotes and will look like this |dw:1373222613176:dw|
