No they don't. They just stretch for a very long ways horizontally without much increase vertically because the output of the function is the exponent of the input. For example, f(x) = log x when x = 1000, f(x) = 3 because 10^3 = 1000 (10 being the base of common log). Therefore, when you increase x substantially, there is only a small increase in y.

Asymptotes are one way - not the only way, but one of several - to analyze the general behavior of a function.
Yes, to the left (towards minus infinity).Yes, to the left (towards minus infinity).Yes, to the left (towards minus infinity).Yes, to the left (towards minus infinity).
Substitute y = mx + b into the equation and then use the fact that there must a double root (at infinity)
that's simple an equation is settled of asymptotes so if you know the asymptotes... etc etc Need more help? write it
Three types of asymptotes are oblique/slant, horizontal, and vertical
If a hyperbola is vertical, the asymptotes have a slope of m = +- a/b. If a hyperbola is horizontal, the asymptotes have a slope of m = +- b/a.
Many functions actually don't have these asymptotes. For example, every polynomial function of degree at least 1 has no horizontal asymptotes. Instead of leveling off, the y-values simply increase or decrease without bound as x heads further to the left or to the right.
No, it will always have one.

finding vertical asymptotes is easy. lets use the equation y = (2x-2)/((x^2)-2x-3) since its a rational equation, all we have to do to find the vertical asymptotes is find the values at which the denominator would be equal to 0. since this makes it an undefined equation, that is where the asymptotes are. for this equation, -1 and 3 are the answers for the vertical ayspmtotes. the horizontal asymptotes are a lot more tricky. to solve them, simplify the equation if it is in factored form, then divide all terms both in the numerator and denominator with the term with the highest degree. so the horizontal asymptote of this equation is 0.
Yes. One at y= pi/2 and y=-pi/2
To determine the equation of the asymptote of a graph, you typically need to analyze the function's behavior as it approaches certain values (often infinity) or points of discontinuity. For rational functions, vertical asymptotes occur where the denominator equals zero, while horizontal asymptotes can be found by comparing the degrees of the numerator and denominator. If you provide a specific function, I can give you its asymptote equations.

there is no horizontal-line test for functions, because people do not do the test that is why !!!
A rational function is a function defined as the ratio of two polynomial functions, typically expressed in the form ( f(x) = \frac{P(x)}{Q(x)} ), where ( P(x) ) and ( Q(x) ) are polynomials. The graph of a rational function can exhibit a variety of behaviors, including vertical and horizontal asymptotes, and can have holes where the function is undefined. The degree of the polynomials affects the function's end behavior and the locations of its asymptotes. Overall, rational functions can represent complex relationships and are often used in calculus and algebra.
