Question

Find the horizontal or oblique asymptote or oblique asymptote of f(x) = -2x^2+3x+6/x+2

1) y = -2x + 7

2) y = -2

3) y = 2

4) y = 2x - 1

Answer 1

The degree of the numerator is higher than the degree of the denominator, so the asymptote is oblique (1 or 4) and you can use long division to find it.
