what are the vertical, horizontal, and oblique asymptotes of
F(x)=10/(x-3)(x^2-49)
F(x)=10/(x-3)(x+7)(x-7)
Horizontal Asymptote: y=0 or x-axis (degree of numerator less than degree of denominator)
Vertical Asymptotes:x=-7, 3 and 7 (set denominator=0, then solve for x)
Oblique asymptotes: none (To exist, numerator must be 1 degree higher than degree of denominator)
