Question 22289: I'm trying to figure out the horizontal aymptote of the following equation,
or if there is one:
h(x) = [1/(x+2)] - 1
I think it is 0 because 0/1 = n Am I correct?
Thanks for your help!

The vertical asymptote occurs when the denominator is zero.
In your problem that happens when x+2=0 or when x=-2
