Analyze lim f(x) and lim f(x), and then identify the horizontal asymptotes. x+x X--∞ lim 4 X-289 2 X∞ X-17 X - 289 lim = 2 ... X∞ X - 17 Identify the horizontal asymptotes. Select the correct choice and, if necessary, fill in the answer box(es) to complete your choice. A. The function has a horizontal asymptote at y = B. The function has two horizontal asymptotes. The top asymptote is y = and the bottom asymptote is y = ☐ . C. The function has no horizontal asymptotes. b. Find the vertical asymptotes. For each vertical asymptote x = a, evaluate lim f(x) and lim f(x). Select the correct choice and, if necessary, fill in the answer boxes to complete your choice. earrow_forwardExplain why lim x²-2x-35 X-7 X-7 lim (x+5), and then evaluate lim X-7 x² -2x-35 x-7 x-7 Choose the correct answer below. A. x²-2x-35 The limits lim X-7 X-7 and lim (x+5) equal the same number when evaluated using X-7 direct substitution. B. Since each limit approaches 7, it follows that the limits are equal. C. The numerator of the expression X-2x-35 X-7 simplifies to x + 5 for all x, so the limits are equal. D. Since x²-2x-35 X-7 = x + 5 whenever x 7, it follows that the two expressions evaluate to the same number as x approaches 7. Now evaluate the limit. x²-2x-35 lim X-7 X-7 = (Simplify your answer.)arrow_forwardA function f is even if f(x) = f(x) for all x in the domain of f.
