+118608 How do you know if the graph of a fractional function has asymptotes?
Firstly ou look for values that x or y cannot be. That will take care of the vertical and horizontal asymptotes.
For instance
You cannot divide by 0 so
for instance in \(y=\frac{3}{x+2}\)
x=-2 would be an asymptote,
also 3 divided by anything cannot be 0 so y=0 is also an asymptote.
You do have to be careful though because sometimes these values are holes in the graph and not asymptotes at all.
It takes practice to work out the nuances of graphing.
After you think about what a graph might look like enter it into desmos graphing calculator to see if you are right.
That will help you to learn.
