Thread: Asymptotes

Given the function


Find the
domain of R.
x-intercepts
y-intercepts
Vertical Asymptote(s)
Horizontal Asymptote

im completely confused
this is what i got so far
domian= {x|x is not equal to 3 or -2}
x-intercepts=x=-3 and x=2
y-intercepts=
vertical asymptotes(s)=
horizontal asymptote=

domian= {x|x is not equal to 3 or -2} correct

x-intercepts=x=-3 and x=2 correct

y-intercepts= correct

vertical asymptotes(s)= no ... x = 3 and x = -2


horizontal asymptote= no again ... y = 1

i dont understand how you find the horizontal and vertical asymptote

did you look at the link lesson I provided?

yes I got a better understand but I dont completely get it
