1. ## Hyperbola

8
f(x)= ------ +4
x -8

what is the equations of the asymptotes of f thank you in advance i need this urgently

$f(x)=\frac{4}{x-8}$

Then, there is only one asymptote at $x=8$

$f(x)=\frac{8}{x-8}+4$

There's a vertical asymptot at x=8 (this will be the equation of the asymptot actually...) and when x tends to infinity (both sides), there is an horizontal asymptot.

$\lim_{x \to \pm \infty} \frac{8}{8-x}+4=\dots \ ?$

Edit : fasters !

Edit: Had trouble untying OP's original function. Missed the 8.

Yah, not clear
