1. 2.6 Rational Functions Steps for Graphing guidelines.

2. y-int. (, ) x-int. (, ) Domain: Asymptote(s) let x = 0 to find y-int. 0 let y = 0 to find x-int.(s) none where is g(x) undefined if x is undefined at a number, there is a vertical asymptote at that number. V.A. @ x = 2 Compare the exponents. Do we have a horizontal at y = 0, a horz. at y = a/b, or a slant asymptote? Deg. of N < Deg. of D is horz. asymptote
