What is a horizontal asymptote?
Back
A horizontal asymptote is a line y = b that a function approaches as x approaches infinity or negative infinity.
4.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you determine horizontal asymptotes for rational functions?
Back
For rational functions, compare the degrees of the numerator and denominator: If the degree of the numerator is less, y = 0; if equal, y = leading coefficient of numerator/leading coefficient of denominator; if greater, no horizontal asymptote.
