Topic
Rationals and Radicals
Description
Horizontal asymptotes describe the behavior of a graph as x approaches infinity or negative infinity. For example, the equation y = (x + 1) / (x - 2) has a horizontal asymptote at y = 1, demonstrating long-term behavior of the function. Focuses on the role of horizontal asymptotes in describing the long-term trends of rational functions.
Understanding this video is essential for grasping the fundamentals of Rationals and Radicals. The mathematical concepts explored here form the basis for further exploration and application in related fields.
