Someone asked for a simple statement of the rules of asymptotes. Here they are.
Given a rational function
if n<m then there is a horizontal asymptote at x=0
if n=m then there is a horizontal asymptote at x=a/b
if n=m+1 then there is a slant asymptote that you can find using polynomial division
if n>m+1 there is no asymptote (asymptotes are usually considered to be straight lines) but there may be an asymptotic curve (again, using polynomial division.)
does this help?

Consider the following question. Jimmy bikes 30 miles before his tire went flat. He then walked six miles the rest of the way. His speed walking was 12 miles per hour less than his speed biking, but he spent the same amount of time walking as biking. How fast was he biking". do you think

  • manipulating rational functions
  • graphing rational functions
  • finding the inverses of rational functions

because there is a quiz this week, you will notice that the topics list is reasonably light. Also - word problems are always a thorn in the side of someone in a class, so I wanted to take this week slow. If you find you are not inundated with work this week, I suggest you work on the topics. In the meantime: is there anything from the previous flipped classrooms you would like to go over before the quiz on Thursday?
