Q

How do you find a Horizontal Asymptote for a Rational Function?

A
  1. If the numerator degree is greater than the denominator degree, there is no horizontal asymptote.
  2. If the numerator degree is less than the denominator degree, the horizontal asymptote is y = 0.
  3. If the numerator degree is equation to the denominator degree, then the horizontal asymptote is y= leading coefficient of the numerator divided by the leading coefficient of the denominator.

Q

How do you find a hole in a Rational Function?

A

Simplify first. If there are any common factors of the numerator and the denominator, the x-value of the hole is the canceled factor. Set canceled factor = 0 and solve for the x-value. Then, plug in the x into the simplified equation to find the y-value of the hole. Answer is in the form of (x, y).
