When does an oblique asymptote occur in a rational function?

Numerator degree is one more than denominator

Where does a vertical asymptote occur?

Where the denominator equals zero

For f(x)=x2+3x+1f(x) = \frac{x^2 + 3}{x + 1}, what is the oblique asymptote?

y=x1y = x - 1

What is the y-intercept of f(x)=x2+3x+1f(x) = \frac{x^2 + 3}{x + 1}?

(0,3)(0, 3)

Does f(x)=x2+3x+1f(x) = \frac{x^2 + 3}{x + 1} have an x-intercept?

No, because x2+30x^2 + 3 \neq 0 for real xx

For f(x)=x1+4x+1f(x) = x - 1 + \frac{4}{x + 1}, what is f(x)f'(x)?

14(x+1)21 - \frac{4}{(x + 1)^2}

What are the x-values of stationary points for f(x)=x2+3x+1f(x) = \frac{x^2 + 3}{x + 1}?

x=1x = 1 and x=3x = -3

What type of stationary point occurs at x=1x = 1?

Local minimum at (1,2)(1, 2)

Why are two sign charts needed for f(x)=x2+3x+1f(x) = \frac{x^2 + 3}{x + 1}?

Vertical asymptote at x=1x = -1 splits domain

What are the coordinates of the local maximum?

(3,6)(-3, -6)
