Markme123 Posted October 29, 2003 Report Posted October 29, 2003 I don't expect many (or any) answers but... How do you test the behavior of a function near a vertical asymptote. <talking about plotting here>
Guest subliminal_animal Posted October 29, 2003 Report Posted October 29, 2003 Why are you asking homework questions on a message board? And not even a trigonometry message board. That's what you have a teacher and a bunch of other jerks in your class for. That question actually seems a little vague. Or maybe it's pretty direct, and I'm just ignorant about the particular concept here. As best as I can tell you, a curve can never touch a vertical asymptote, if that's a serviceable answer to what you're asking. And, being a man of many myriad talents, I can also find the vertical and horizontal asymptotes of a given function. Look, but don't touch.
Ravenbomb Posted October 29, 2003 Report Posted October 29, 2003 hey, markme, think you could make your sig pic a bit bigger?
Guest subliminal_animal Posted October 29, 2003 Report Posted October 29, 2003 Wow, I'm sure no one's gonna be able to do without what you just brought to the math class. Thanks for posting, whiz kid.
Guest JacK Posted October 31, 2003 Report Posted October 31, 2003 Vertical? That's 'x is not equal whatever' right? If so, you just sub in x values close to it is what I've always done. Like for two, I just sub in 1.999999999 using a calculater.
