Slant (oblique) asymptotes Complete the following steps for the given functions.
- a. Use polynomial long division to find the slant asymptote of f.
- b. Find the vertical asymptotes of f.
- c. Graph f and all its asymptotes with a graphing utility. Then sketch a graph of the function by hand, correcting any errors appearing in the computer-generated graph.

- The graph of a polynomial function can have infinitely many vertical asymptotes. (true/false, justify your answer)arrow_forwardDetermine if the statement is true or false. If the statement is false, then correct it and make it true. The graph of a rational function will never cross a horizontal asymptote.arrow_forward(a) Give the general form of polynomial function P of degree n. (b) What does it mean to say that c is a zero of P? Give two equivalent conditions that tell us that c is a zero of P.arrow_forward
