Step 1
Vertical asymptotes occur when the denominator of a rational function is equal to zero. So, we can write the denominator as $(x+3)(x+1)$ to have vertical asymptotes at $x=-3$ and $x=-1$. Show more…

Find a rational function with the following characteristics: vertical asymptotes of x = -9 and x = -5, a hole when x = 2, and a horizontal asymptote of y = 1. Show all work to receive full credit.

3. f(x) = x 4. f(x) = x^2 - 9 For each of the following, identify the horizontal asymptote, if any. Otherwise, write "none." Do not graph. Use the rules for finding horizontal asymptotes of a rational function. Write the answer in the form: y = 5. f(x) 6. r(x) 7. g(x) 8. h(t) Evaluate each limit. Examine the graph, if necessary: 9. lim 10. lim 11. lim 12. lim 13. lim
