What is the effect of a translation on the graph of a function?

• It changes the slope of the graph

• It moves the graph up, down, left, or right

• It modifies the range of the function

• It alters the x-intercepts of the graph

What are the characteristics of a horizontal asymptote based on the degrees of a function?

• It is always at y = 0

• It is found when the degrees of the numerator and denominator are equal

• It exists only if the degree of the numerator is less than the denominator

• It is determined by the highest degree of x in the numerator
