Answer the following activity on our Google Classroom.

𝑥−5
1. Find all asymptotes of 𝑓 (𝑥 ) =
𝑥2 −8𝑥+12

Vertical Asymptote The vertical asymptote is the line in which the function will be
undefined. Thus the vertical asymptote is x = 2, 6

Horizontal Asymptote f(x)= ; n = 1, m = 2; Since n < m, y = 0.

2. Explain why the function 𝑓(𝑥 ) = , is not asymptotic to the line x=3. Sketch the
𝑥−3
graph of this function with label and value.

Substitute in 0 for x and solve for y.

y=1→y=5

5𝑥−15
• 𝑓(𝑥 ) = is not asymptomatic to the line x = 3 because the denominator can
𝑥−3
5(𝑥−3)
be simplified if we factor out the numerator, then we will get 𝑓 (𝑥 ) = = 5. So
𝑥−3
the numerator also became 0 when the denominator was zero, that is why we didn't
have an asymptote at x = 3.

3. Sketch the graph, with label and value, of 𝑓 (𝑥 ) = and give its domain, intercepts,
𝑥 2 −4
asymptotes, and range.

Vertical Asymptote: x = -2, 2

y – intercept = (0, 0.25)

Horizontal Asymptote: y = 0 x – intercept = (0.5, 0)

2𝑥 − 1
𝑓(𝑥) =
𝑥2 − 4

The value of x that will make the denominator zero is x = 2, -2. Thus the
Domain x = 2, -2 will make the function undefined.
The Domain of the function is { 𝑥 ∈ 𝑅 ┃x ≠ 2, −2}.

Substitute in 0 for y and solve for x.

x – intercept 2x – 1 = 0
2x = 1 → x = ½
x-intercept: (½, 0)

Substitute in 0 for x and solve for y

2(0)−1 −1

y – intercept 02 −4 −4
y=¼
y-intercept: (0, ¼)

Horizontal Asymptotes 1
f (x) = ; n =1, m=2; Since n < m, the horizontal asymptote is y = 0.

Vertical Asymptotes The vertical asymptote is the line in which the function will be undefined.
Thus the verlical asymptote is x = 2, -2.

Range The range of the function is {y ∈ R ┃y ≠ 0}

𝑥 +2𝑥−3
asymptotes, and range.

𝑥 + 2𝑥 − 3
Vertical Asymptote: x = -3, 1

Horizontal Asymptote: y = 2
y – intercept = (0, 0)

x – intercept = (0, 0)

The value of x that will make the denominator zero is x = 1, -3. Thus the
Domain x = 1, -3 will make the function undefined.
The Domain of the function is { 𝑥 ∈ 𝑅 ┃x ≠ 1, −3}.

Substitute in 0 for y and solve for x.
