Rational functions
-can have horizontal, oblique, and vertical asymptotes

For Example: Find the vertical asymp. from the example shown
set denominator equal to 0: x - 4 = 0
solve for x: x = 4
Thus there is a vertical asymptote at x = 4

Factoring the denominator
When I set the denominator equal to 0 I run into a problem
How do I solve when it is x squared?
FACTOR! x (x - 3)
then set each factor equal to 0: x = 0 and x = 3

Ex. 2 Find the Horizontal Asymptotes
The degree of the numerator is 0
The degree of the denominator is 2
The den > num: therefore there is a horizontal asymptote at y = 0
14
Ex. 3 Find the Horizontal asymptote
the degree of the numerator is 1
the degree of the denominator is 1
Since the degrees are equal the horizontal asymptote is at y = 1/2
