Chapter 11.2, Problem 3CCYP

To determine

To identify: The asymptotes of function $y=\frac{2}{x+2}+1$ and graph it.

Answer to Problem 3CCYP

  

Explanation of Solution

Given: $y=\frac{2}{x+2}+1$

The given function, $y=\frac{2}{x+2}+1$

For vertical asymptote set denominator to 0

  $x=-2$

For horizontal asymptote, $x\to \infty$

  $y=1$

Make table of x and y

  $\begin{array}{ccccc}x& -4& -3& -1& 0\\ y& 0& -1& 3& 2\end{array}$

Plot the points on graph.
