Attributes and Transformations of Rational Functions

State the vertical asymptote:  f(x)=(x-2)/(x+5).

• x = -2/5
• x = -5/2
• x = -5
• x = 2

State the horizontal asymptote:  (2x²-5x +1)/(x²-x)

• y = 2
• y = 1
• y = 0
• There is no HA

State the vertical asymptotes:  f(x) = 2 / (2x²+3x - 5)

• x = 1 , x = -5
• x = 1, x = -5/2
• x = -1/2, x = 5
• x = 0 , x = -5/2
