Question 92557
The horizontal asymptote is found by dividing the leading terms, so the asymptote is given by:


y = (numerator's leading coefficient) / (denominator's leading coefficient)



So here the leding term in the numerator is 8 and that in the denominator is 4.



So substituing in the above formula we get: 



{{{y = 8/4}}} 


==> y = 2


We can observe this when wee graph it. 



{{{graph( 300, 300, -10, 10, -10, 10,((8x - 12)/(4x - 2)))}}} 


Here in the graph we observe that the two lines (in the graph) makes the horizontal asymptote at y = 2...


Thus the solution
