Question 158110: CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS PROBLEM:
LET R(x)= x^3-2x^2-7 / x^2 + 1 WHAT KIND(S) OF ASYMPTOTES DOES R(x) possess?
1. a single horizontal asymptote
2. a slant asymptote and a horizontal asymptote
3. a single slant asymptote
4 R(x) has no asymptotes

Notice how the degree of the numerator is greater than the degree of the denominator. So this means that there is a single slant asymptote.

So the answer is choice 3. a single slant asymptote
