Learners will algebraically determine vertical, horizontal, and oblique asymptotes, analyze function behavior around vertical asymptotes, and describe end behavior using infinity notation.
analyze characteristics of rational functions and the behavior of the function around the asymptotes, including horizontal, vertical, and oblique asymptotes;
analyze and describe end behavior of functions, including exponential, logarithmic, rational, polynomial, and power functions, using infinity notation to communicate this characteristic in mathematical and real-world problems;
