Horizontal Asymptotes and Slant Asymptotes of Rational Functions
This algebra video tutorial explains how to identify the horizontal asymptotes and slant asymptotes of rational functions by comparing the degree of the numerator with the degree of the denominator of the rational expression. The equation of the slant asymptote can be determine using long division if the degree of the numerator exceeds the degree of the denominator by exactly 1. This algebra video tutorial contains plenty of examples and practice problems.

When you have a gift it can seem wild to those who don’t share the same gift, he probably understands saying or teaching something that may seem complex to many that the best way is to try to make it sound as simple as possible and it seems that he loves teaching.

tenure this is when school sign contracts with teacher pretty much guarantees them a job for life no matter what. That's why when you get a bad teacher most of the time they get away with it. Even if they are so bad and the school decides to fire them the school has to go through a complicated process that can last at least a year or longer. Chances of a teacher getting fired is 1 in 2000 compared to a doctor which is 1 in 57. The American public school system sucks. We need more teachers like this dude.

very late reply but there is a quicker way called synthetic division, when you're dividing by those trinomials with a binomial it makes it so much easier.
you're the reason why I'm starting to love math☀️
MR. Organic Chemistry tutor ,thank you for a well explained and solid analysis of Horizontal and Slant Asymptotes in precalculus.
I should thank you my friend. I learned a lot from your great videos. They are very easy and fast to understand and learn. Tnx a lot

You have delivered real knowledge... that too with such ease.. great. Thanks!
in the first case of slant asymptote the asymptote does not exist since the remainder of long division is zero and if we cancel out the terms we see that we get linear function with equation y = x + 2 with a missing point at x = -3 which lies on the asymptote and that contradicts with the definition of an asymptote

😊 thanks for being the best math teacher I had ever come across
GOOD WORK MAN..
Damn this guy just taught me all the knowledge my teacher has been teaching us for weeks that I haven’t understood until now
I'm talking about: x^2+5x+6/X+3, but algebraic long division is probably something to get marks in the exam, rather than factoring, both ways are not that hard, after you explained them.
This man is legendary.
Thank you so much for all your amazing videos . Please keep making much more such good videos.... 😊😊
its amazing how you didnt stretch this into an 80 minute lesson for absolutely no reason!
10:01 lmao i thought it was (7x-y) + y but the y was actually 4 😂 anyways great video man!
Exactly what I was looking for!
Thanks a lot bro. Your videos helping so well 👍🏻

I'm writing my second Calculus test on Thursday, and I'm confident I'm also gonna pass it. Thank you for your existence❤️
Straight to the point Btw thanks bro
Great videos, and for the question with the O.A you could have factored.
Dudeeeee this is so easy with youuu
I wish we learnED this!
By the way, synthetic division can be used to find the asymptote, although it might be easier to use polynomial long division in certain situations.

Sorry, how can there be a slant asymptote if the equation at 5:20 factors cleanly into [x+2] without a remainder? Shouldn't there be a slant asymptote only if it leaves a remainder?

Amazing explain...
Omg you helped me so much many blessings to you
Y=(x²-3x+4)/(x²-6x+8) Y=1 is the horizontal asymptote but when you graph it it is only applicable on the right side of the graph but when you extend the line y=1 to the left it will intersect the graph of the given rational equation.
Thanks for such a nice explanation. Love you from India......
Thank you... again.
Great lessons sir, I learn a lot of you ! Thank you very mutch
you have taught me more math in 6 minutes than my entire last semester of school
THANK YOU 💚👀✨ I didn't understand how to find Slant asymptote, but I'll understand I watched this video twice, and now I better understand how to find slant asymptote :з)
I really like watching math videos by this man
Bro thank you so much u saved my exam 💯
Ingl you are saving my life every single day i have precalc class
its easy to remember if u think like this... Think the rational expression as a building if its top heavy just by one it will collapse but not desintagrate resulting in a oblique line if its top heavy by more than one it will collapse and desintagrate, theres no line! if its bottom heavy well the building its on the floor as it should be, y=0 if top and bottom are equally heavy, then divide those bad boys

I humbly thank you.
Im confused about if these rules ALWAYS apply. For instance take (5x + 1) / (x^2 - x - 1) and graph it in the graphing calculator. There appears to be a horizontal asymptote at y = 0. However there is a vertical like that strikes through y = 0 in between 2 other lines in the function. Does the horizontal asymptote still apply?? Do these set of rules apply no matter what? If anyone could help that would be wonderful!! Thank you

Thank you so much good sir
thankyou very much
The other oblique asymptote is good, but I think it's best to write out the full answer (kind of like a mixed number). The rational function, after long division, equals 2x + (-16x+6)/(xx+4). Then analyze as x approaches infinity....(-16x+6)/(xx+4) will approach zero....ie leaving y=2x as the oblique asymptote.
Thank you!
The best right here for a fact
is there a way to rationally calculate these without knowing any tricks like "If the degree is the same devide the coefficients". I want to know how to look at a function and see in my head where the asymptotes would be
Thank you 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
