Document Summary

Rational function r(x) = n(x)/d(x) ratio of two polynomial functions. R(x) = anx n + an-1x n-1 a1x + a0 bmxm + bm-1xm-1 b1x + b0. Ex #1: f(x) = x/(x-1) graph as we approach +1 from either direction? recall domain x 1, but what happens to the. Ex #2: f(x) = x 2 9 x + 3 domain x 3 f(x) = (x + 3)(x 3) = x 3 x -3 x + 3. The line y = b is a h. a. of f(x) if and only if f(x) approaches b as x approaches positive or negative . Given: f(x) = anx n + an-1x n-1 a1x + a0 bmxm + bm-1xm-1 b1x + b0. Look at n degree of numerator. Look at m degree of denominator. If n < m: the x-axis y=0 is the h. a. If n = m: the h. a. is the line y = an/bm. If n > m: then there is no h. a.
