SOLUTION: find the horizontal asympeote, if any, of the graph of the rational function. f(x)=17x/5x^2+8 type the equation of the horizontal asyptote. or if there is not one

Question 244395: find the horizontal asympeote, if any, of the graph of the rational function.
f(x)=17x/5x^2+8 type the equation of the horizontal asyptote. or if there is not one

Since the degree of the numerator (which is 1) is LESS than the degree of the denominator (which is 2), the horizontal asymptote is always y=0.
