Horizontal Asymptote of Rational Functions

What is the horizontal asymptote of the function given?

• y = 2

• x = 1

• x = 2

• y = -1

The horizontal asymptote equals zero when:

• the degree of the numerator and denominator are equal

• the degree of the numerator is less than the degree of the denominator

• the degree of the numerator is greater than the degree of the denominator

• the numerator equals zero

What is the horizontal asymptote to this function?

• y=4

• y = 0

• unbounded

• y = -1/4

• Does Not Exist

The given graphed function would have a horizontal asymptote at (a)  

• x = 0

• y = 0

• x = 2

• y = 2

What is the horizontal asymptote?

• x = 2

• y = 2

• x =-2

• y=-2
