Algebra.Com's Answer #106822 by jim_thompson5910(35256)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since the degree of the numerator is the same as the degree of the denominator, this means that there is a horizontal asymptote. So there is no slant asymptote. \n" ); document.write( " |
