For which values of m would the rational function have an horizontal asymptote at y=m?
Exclusively if m is an integer.
Any real number except zero.
None; the equation always has an horizontal asymptote at y=q.
Only when m is greater than one.
What describes best how to find zeros from a given rational function's equation?
Add both numerator and denominator together set equal to zero then solve for x.
Set denominator equal to zero and solve for x.
Set numerator equal to zero and solve for x.
Multiply both numerator by denominator set equal to zero then solve for X.
What is the horizontal asymptote of the rational function ?
x = 0
y = 6
x = 6
y = 0
Which feature on the graph of a rational function indicates a vertical asymptote?

Compare Rational functions to distance-time graphs of two objects moving along paths. Calculate which object's path is longer over the interval [0, 5].
Both paths are equal because both objects have consistent speeds and distances covered are equal.
Interval of object with a longer path due to a greater numerator affecting altitude.
Interval of object with a shorter path since it has a larger denominator influencing the steepness of the curve.
Both objects travel at the same pace, thus the identical intervals are covered.
Where does exhibit discontinuities?
Any unique solution where .
B must exactly equal one half.
B must not equal one half in order to create discontinuities.
There are no such values for which is continuous.
When does a simple rational function have no vertical asymptotes?
The numerator and denominator have the same roots
The numerator has no real roots
The denominator has no real roots
The denominator has exactly one real root
