What's on the worksheet

  1. Find each horizontal asymptote, or say how the outputs behave far out.
    \dfrac{12x - 5}{4x + 9}\dfrac{x + 8}{x^2 - 3x + 1}\dfrac{7 - 8x^2}{x + 6x^2}\dfrac{(4 - x)(3x + 1)}{(2x - 5)(x + 6)}\dfrac{-2x^4 + x}{x^2 + 9}
  2. Find each student's mistake and give the correct statement.
  3. Write a rational function with a given asymptote that its graph crosses at exactly one input.
  4. Use two marked points to find the constants in the function whose graph is shown.
  5. Find the least denominator degree for a graph crossing its asymptote three times, and give an example.
