>>The graph below:<<
`
`
>>has a vertical asymptote at x=3,<<
So it could have a denominator that when set = 0, gives
x=3,
So its denominator could be x-3. So the equation could
be like this:
>>a horizontal asymptote at y=0,<<
That means its numerator would have to be of less degree than
its denominator. So if its denominator is x-3, which is of
degree 1, then its numerator would have to be of degree 0,
which would be a constant, say, k. Then the equation could
be like this:
>>and passes through the point (4,2).
what could be the function of this graph?<<
We substitute x=4 and y=2 into
So substituting k=2, the equation could be this function:
or if we use function notation:
