Learn how to determine the asymptotes and intercepts

The video tutorial covers the concepts of horizontal and vertical asymptotes, focusing on when to avoid division and how to identify asymptotes based on polynomial degrees. It explains the process of finding zeros in polynomials, including the use of factoring and the quadratic formula, and distinguishes between real and complex zeros. The tutorial also provides methods for finding X and Y intercepts in rational expressions, emphasizing shortcuts and key principles.

What is the significance of the horizontal asymptote when the degree in the numerator is larger than the degree in the denominator?

How do you determine the vertical asymptotes of a function?

What is the fundamental theorem of algebra in relation to polynomial functions?

Explain the process of finding the X intercepts of a rational expression.

What is the Y intercept of the function when X is equal to 0?
