Objectives
End Behavior of Rational Functions
  • When do rational functions have horizontal asymptotes?
  • Are there other kinds of asymptotes for rational functions?
  • How does one find the end behavior and asymptotes of rational functions?
Zeros of Rational Functions
  • Finding -intercepts of Rational Functions
  • Realizing the importance of considering the domain of a rational function when finding the zeros
Graphing Rational Functions
  • What does the graph of a rational function look like near the points which are not in the domain?
  • How does one determine if a rational function has any vertical asymptotes? How does one find them?
  • How does one determine if the graph of a rational function has any holes? How does one find them?
  • How do we put all the information we know about a rational function together to draw the graph?
