question 122

Multiple Choice

Determine whether the graph of the rational function has a horizontal asymptote, an oblique asymptote, or neither. Give
the equation of the asymptote if it exists.

• A) \(\text { Horizontal asymptote: } \mathrm { y } = - \frac { 1 } { 2 }\)
• B) \(\text { Oblique asymptote: } y = - \frac { 1 } { 2 } x - 5\)
• C)Neither
