Where do Vertical Asymptotes come from in a Rational Functions? Do you set the factors of the numerator or denominator = 0?

• Numerator
• Denominator

The holes of a rational function occur when :

• my pencil pokes a hole in the paper I'm working on
• there is something left in the denominator
• the value of f(0)
• a factor in the denominator cancels with a factor in the numerator

What is the definition of an ASYMPTOTE?

• A curved line. 
• A line that only touches the origin. 
• A line that only lives on the first quadrant. 
• A line that a curve approaches, as it heads towards infinity.

The horizontal asymptote equals zero when:

• the exponents in the numerator and denominator are equal
• the exponents in the numerator are less than the denominator
• the exponents in the numerator are greater than the denominator
• the numerator equals zero

When finding the Horizontal asymptotes of a function, you should be thinking...

• "Set Bottom = to Zero"
• "Top = 0"
• "f(0)"
• "Look at the Degree of the top and bottom..."
