Return to Assignments Exponential functions and graphs
Assignment 7
Draw the graph of the function:
What is the formula of the asymptote?
Solution
First we look at the function:
This is a function with a shifted graph of:
We can sketch the graph of this function quite easily. Square its graph, shift it to the right and divide the result by 
. When we mirror this function in the 
-axis we get the final result. The -axis, i.e. 
is the asymptote of the graph.
