Why is y=a a horizontal asymptote on the polar coordinates? The discussion centers on understanding why the line y=a serves as a horizontal asymptote for the hyperbolic spiral defined by rt=a in polar coordinates The user initially grapples with discrepancies between their plotted curve and one generated by Maple, particularly as t approaches 0
Describing behavior on each side of a vertical asymptote Find the vertical asymptotes of the graph of F (x) = (3 - x) (x^2 - 16) ok if i factor the denominator i find the vertical asymptotes to be x = 4, x = -4 The 2nd part of the problem asks: Describe the behavior of f (x) to the left and right of each vertical asymptote I'm not sure what i need to write for this
