    Aug 5, 2007 · I thought that horizontal asymptotes were asymptotes and now I'm hearing that they can be crossed... Is this true? If so, why and how? Okay, wait a...

  2. What is an asymptote and why doesn't parabola have one?

    Oct 1, 2007 · The thing I have noticed is that parabola's angle from the x-axis keeps increasing...meaning the object is decreasing from that direction...if that is the case, then how does it …

  3. Horizontal asymptotes - approaches from above or below?

    Feb 22, 2009 · I seem to be having a lot of difficulty finding whether for a horizontal asymptote, whether the curve approaches the asymptote from above or below. For example, for the problem y = \\frac{6x …

  4. What is an asymptote and how do we find it in graphing ln(x)?

    Nov 28, 2008 · An asymptote is a line that the graph of a function approaches but never touches, typically occurring where the function goes to positive or negative infinity. For the function y=3ln …

  5. Determining the horizontal asymptote - Physics Forums
