Question
![**Problem:**
a. Find the slant asymptote of the graph of the rational function and
b. Use the slant asymptote to graph the rational function.
Given function:
\[ f(x) = \frac{x^3 - 27}{x^2 - 16} \]
a. The equation of the slant asymptote is _______.
b. Choose the correct graph below:
1. Option A: Graph showing possible asymptotic behavior with plotted points between approximately (-30, 30) on both axes.
2. Option B: Graph with similar range, different curve pattern.
3. Option C: Another graph with different curve crossing.
4. Option D: Graph with distinct curve configuration and asymptote crossing pattern.

**Explanation of Graphs:**
Each graph option (A, B, C, D) displays a Cartesian coordinate system with axes labeled X and Y spanning from approximately -20 to 20. These graphs depict different configurations of curves, suggesting different asymptotic behaviors based on the function provided. Selection should be based on a correctly identified slant asymptote and corresponding curve behavior.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F15b020c1-73c4-4a64-88e9-b7ff4516b37c%2F3f251eb4-1fc3-4c8b-aba6-b469ce8d511b%2Funqshz9_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
