Question 144213: What is the equation of the slant asymptote for x^2 - x + 17/x^2 + 1?
a. R(x) = x -1
b. R(x) = 1
c. R(x) = x + 17
d. There is no slant asymptote Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since the degree of the numerator and the denominator is the same
"d" is the answer.
The function has a horizontal asymptote at y = 1.
