If

f(x)=2x8x22x3 and g(x)=3x+92x4
What is the horizontal asymptote as x approaches negative infinity of f(g(x))?

f(x)=2x8x22x3 and g(x)=3x+92x4

 

I found    f(3x+92x4)       and then I simplified it all down.

 

There was a lot of algebra and I have not checked my result.  Checking could be done by graphing the original substituted function

 

anyway I ended up with    [ -40(x^2+....)]  /  [-15(x^2+....) ]   if this is correct I would assume that the horizontal asymptote is   

40/15 = 8/3

 

 

But there could be 100 mistakes in my working and also in my logic.
