do u know wats an oblique asymptote?

mathmale · Answer

If that's the rational function in question, then there's no oblique asymptote.  "Slant asymptote" is another name frequently seen.

mathmale · Answer

Why not first try to find the horiz. asy. and then the vertical asymptotes?  How many vert. asymptotes do you think there are, and why?
