What Are Asymptotes?

Explanations 6

• Rational functions are generalizations of polynomials. Specifically, they are of the form R(x)=P(x)Q(x)=anxn+⋯+a0bmxm+⋯+b0,R(x)=\frac{P(x)}{Q(x)}=\frac{a_nx^n+\cdots+a_0}{b_mx^m…

• Rational functions are functions that are fractions with polynomial numerators and denominators. More specifically, they are functions of the form R(x)=P(x)Q(x)R(x)=\dfrac{P(x)}…

• An asymptote is a straight line that does not touch a curve. For example, if I have a hyperbola, the asymptote would be either a vertical, horizontal, or other line that does no…
