SV#2: Unit G:concepts 1-7: how to solve and graph rational functions



This problem demonstrates the difference between a horizontal asymptote and a Slant Assymptote. It goes by a step by step instructions as to how to solve and graph these rational functions. There are multiple steps that are to be done in order to get to graphing or to get to the next step. Each section has its own method of solving things but not everything is overly complicated. Make sure to solve this problem yourself before watching the video.

Some things that you must be very careful with is when solving for the x intercepts you only set the factors equal to zero to the ones that have not been canceled. Which. Means that if it is a hole then you do not set that equal to zero. also when trying to find the limit notation be very careful as to what direction you are looking at because depending in the direction the infinity sign will change from negative to positive. If there are don points on that side if the graph then it will most likely mean that it is a positive infinity. Also, if you do not feel so sure about your graph or if you want to be more accurate then try to plug in  as many key points  as possible. you just write inn the equation and press graph then press trace and the number of the x value you are trying to find. This will help make a more accurate graph.

I hope this  video helped. Than you for watching. ☺️
