Question

What is the oblique asymptote of the function f(x) = the quantity of x squared plus x minus 2, all over x plus 1?
y = x + 3
y = x
y = x − 1
y = x − 3

Answer 3

ugh something wrong with equation tool..
f(x)=(x^2+x-2)/(x+1)
are you familiar with long or synthetic division of polynomials?

Answer 4

the highest degree of top polynomial is greater than x+1, so there is a oblique asymptote.
oblique asymptote is also known as slant asymptote. Apply the long division or synthetic division method. whatever you get for quotient will be the equation for oblique asymptote.
