Question 1198477: Find the vertical and horizontal asymptotes for f(x)=x^2-25/6x+1.
One of the following is the correct answer. Which one?
A) The vertical asymptote is in x=5.The horizontal asymptote is in y=0
B) There is no vertical asymptote. The horizontal asymptote is in y=-1/6
C) The vertical asymptote is x=-1/6. There is no horizontal asymptote.
D) There is no vertical asymptote. The horizontal asymptote is in y=5
E) The vertical asymptote is in x=1/6. There is no horizontal asymptote Answer by greenestamps(13200) (Show Source):
The degree of the numerator is greater than the degree of the denominator, so there is no horizontal asymptote.
The vertical asymptote(s) are where the denominator is 0:
6x+1 = 0 --> x = -1/6
