SV #2: Unit G Concept #1-7: Rational Functions

This problem is everything about rational functions! You will learn how to find your asymptotes, holes, domain, x-intercept, and y-intercept. Each asymptote, such as the horizontal, slant, vertical, and hole, has unique rules and steps to determine the equation. Most of the different asymptotes depend on the degree of the top and bottom of the polynomial. This concept also includes the limit notation.

The viewer needs to pay special attention the vertical asymptote and hole(s) because for vertical asymptote, the denominator (or bottom) has to be set up to 0. The tricky part is the denominator. Why? Because the viewer needs to make sure that whatever is actually left in the denominator, meaning everything else is already checked if it can be canceled, can be equaled to 0. Also, it is relatively easier if you use the simplified equation for the y-intercept since there will be a hole in this problem.
