(If the limit is infinite, enter 'oo' or '-o', as appropriate. If the limit does not otherwise exist, enter DNE.) (b) What does the result from part (a) tell you about horizontal asymptotes? O The result does not yield any information regarding horizontal asymptotes. O The result indicates that there are no horizontal asymptotes.
