Identify the horizontal and vertical asymptotes, if any, of the given function. f(x)=x^2−9 /−x^2−9 Separate multiple answers by commas. Enter DNE if an asymptote does not exist. a) Horizontal asymptote(s): y= b) Vertical asymptote(s): x=
Added by Meri ~.
Step 1
The function f(x) = (x^2 - 9) / (-x^2 - 9) can be simplified to f(x) = -1. a) Horizontal asymptote(s): Since the function simplifies to a constant, the horizontal asymptote is y = -1. b) Vertical asymptote(s): The function is defined for all real numbers, so Show more…
