Question

how do i find a asymptote out of an equation

Answer 1

What kind of asymptote? vertical, horizontal or slant?

Answer 2

um not shure im hospital homebound and i dont understand what im exactly looking at

Answer 3

Do you have an equation your given to find one?

Answer 4

i have many equations and i have to find asymptote, where it turns@, dom, ran, end behavior, and some things i dont understand whch are as x-> - infinite, y-> , as x-> infinte, y->

Answer 5

hmmm still can't help unless I have more specific equations, give me an example of your first one

Answer 6

You need to post your first equation.

Answer 7

y= -2 times (2/3)x + 5

Answer 8

\[y = -2(\frac{ 2 }{ 3 })x +5\]

?

Answer 9

yes

Answer 10

As far as I can tell, there is no asymptote, there can only be one it it is a rational equation

Answer 11

if it is*

Answer 12

well im stumped and have no idea what to do

Answer 13

@Mertsj

Answer 14

are you sure you have the equation written right? There isn't a numerator or denominator?

Answer 15

The way you have posted your equation makes it equivalent to
\[y=\frac{-4}{3}x +5\]

Answer 16

If that it is the case, the graph is a line and there is no asymptote. I'm thinking you have posted the equation incorrectly.

Answer 17

y equals negative 2 time ( two thirds ) x plus five

Answer 18

But -2 times two thirds is - four thirds

Answer 19

i dont even know what a asymptote is so ...

Answer 20

If you have an equation such as y = 1/x, it is clear that x cannot be 0 so x = 0 is an asymptote which is a line the graph gets closer and closer to but never intersects.

Answer 22

In that graph, x=3 is an asymptote.

Answer 23

i dont know what to say ... i mean my teacher gave it to me so ... i dont know what to do

Answer 24

and i cant exactly go to school because i'm home schooled basiclly

Answer 25

Look in your book and study it.

Answer 26

i dont have a book

Answer 27

all i got from the teacher was paper work

Answer 28

Post a picture of your paper work.

Answer 29

hold one min

Answer 30

those are the first three

Answer 31

ahhh the x's are exponents!

Answer 32

Well that's a whole different story. Now you can help him, right hilbertboy96?

Answer 33

@hilbertboy96 @mertsj

Answer 34

ehhhh havent learned about asymptotes andl imits for exponentials yet so sorry :/

Answer 35

yeah its
ok
