s

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so dificult what subject r u study? rational functions?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got one that has the same y intercept and the same asymtotes but it has very diferent behavior

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i need some time

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay take your time

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think that i got it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is the first time that i see this kind of problems so maybe the method that i use is no the most apropriate

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did you get it though?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first u must know that it has asymtoptes in x=2 and x=-2 so it must have (x-2)(x+2) in the denominator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

look at the graph it is the same?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

second it has a zero in x=1 so it must have (x-1) in the numerator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did u get it until now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay ig et it to here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we must determine the value of (a)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we can do it with the y intercept, (0, -2) so replacing in the function and solving for (a)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry it is wrong the asymtotes r in x=3 and x=-3
