Which of the following statements are true of this rational function? check all of the boxes that apply.
(x+ a)(x+b)
f(x)=
x + ax

no oblique asymptote

step-by-step explanation:

to find the oblique asymptote of f(x)

here numerator has degree 1 and denomintor degree 2

degree of numerator < degree of denominator

hence there is no oblique asymptote

when the degree of the denominator > that of the numerator, we saw that the value in the denominator got so much bigger, so quickly,   giving us a horizontal asymptote of the x-axis. or we can write

f(x) = a polynomial of x + a proper fraction.

in this case only we have oblique asymptotes but not when numerator has less degree.

option b  

step-by-step explanation:

we know that

the distance from point n to lm in the figure is equal to the distance of the perpendicular line to lm that passes through the point n

so

the distance is equal to the segment no

> given problem

therefore

the distance from point n to lm is equal to
