2. f(x) = x+1/4
Answers
Answer:
here is your answer :-
Step-by-step explanation:
Given What are the vertical and horizontal asymptotes for the function f (x) = 3x^2 / x^2 – 4
We need to find the function f(x) = 3x^2 / x^2 – 4
Now the given equation is undefined for x = 2, - 2
When x tends to 2 the expression 3x^2 / x^2 – 4 tends to infinity from the left as well as from the right, so x = 2 is a vertical asymptote.
When x tends to - 2 the expression 3x^2 / x^2 – 4 tends to infinity from the left as well as from the right, so x = - 2 is a vertical asymptote.
Hence the vertical asymptotes are x = - 2, 2
Let the rational function R (x) = p x^n / q x^m where n and m are degree of numerator and denominator.
If n < m, then the y axis y = 0 is a horizontal asymptote.
If n = m then horizontal asymptote is the line y = p/q
We need to find n and m when n = 2 and m = 2
Since n = m the horizontal asymptote is the line y = p/q where p = 3 and q = 1
Therefore y = 3
Now the vertical asymptotes x = - 2, 2
Horizontal asymptotes y = 3
