Before proceeding, consider the graph of
shown in

and
the graph of
appears almost linear. Although
is certainly not a linear function, we now investigate why the graph of
seems to be approaching a linear function. First, using long division of polynomials, we can write
Since
as
we conclude that
Therefore, the graph of
approaches the line
as
This line is known as an
oblique asymptote for

We can summarize the results of
[link] to make the following conclusion regarding end behavior for rational functions. Consider a rational function
where
If the degree of the numerator is the same as the degree of the denominator
then
has a horizontal asymptote of
as
If the degree of the numerator is less than the degree of the denominator
then
has a horizontal asymptote of
as
If the degree of the numerator is greater than the degree of the denominator
then
does not have a horizontal asymptote. The limits at infinity are either positive or negative infinity, depending on the signs of the leading terms. In addition, using long division, the function can be rewritten as
where the degree of
is less than the degree of
As a result,
Therefore, the values of
approach zero as
If the degree of
is exactly one more than the degree of
the function
is a linear function. In this case, we call
an oblique asymptote.
Now let’s consider the end behavior for functions involving a radical.
Determining end behavior for a function involving a radical
Find the limits as
and
for
and describe the end behavior of
Let’s use the same strategy as we did for rational functions: divide the numerator and denominator by a power of
To determine the appropriate power of
consider the expression
in the denominator. Since
for large values of
in effect
appears just to the first power in the denominator. Therefore, we divide the numerator and denominator by
Then, using the fact that
for
for
and
for all
we calculate the limits as follows:
Therefore,
approaches the horizontal asymptote
as
and the horizontal asymptote
as
as shown in the following graph.
Determining end behavior for transcendental functions
The six basic trigonometric functions are periodic and do not approach a finite limit as
For example,
oscillates between
(

has an infinite number of vertical asymptotes as
therefore, it does not approach a finite limit nor does it approach
as

Communication is effective because it allows individuals to share ideas, thoughts, and information with others.
effective communication can lead to improved outcomes in various settings, including personal relationships, business environments, and educational settings. By communicating effectively, individuals can negotiate effectively, solve problems collaboratively, and work towards common goals.

Every time someone flushes a toilet in the apartment building, the person begins to jumb back automatically after hearing the flush, before the water temperature changes. Identify the types of learning, if it is classical conditioning identify the NS, UCS, CS and CR. If it is operant conditioning, identify the type of consequence positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement or punishment
nature is an hereditary factor while nurture is an environmental factor which constitute an individual personality. so if an individual's parent has a deviant behavior and was also brought up in an deviant environment, observation of the behavior and the inborn trait we make the individual deviant.

I am taking this course because I am hoping that I could somehow learn more about my chosen field of interest and due to the fact that being a PsyD really ignites my passion as an individual the more I hope to learn about developing and literally explore the complexity of my critical thinking skills
hello. autism is a umbrella term. autistic kids have different disorder overlapping. for example. a kid may show symptoms of ADHD and also learning disabilities.
before treatment please make sure the kid doesn't have physical disabilities like hearing..vision..speech problem. sometimes these

sometimes due to these physical problems..the diagnosis may be misdiagnosed.
treatment for autism.
well it depends on the severity.
since autistic kids have problems in communicating and adopting to the environment.. it's best to expose the child in situations where the child

child interact with other kids under doc supervision.
play therapy.
speech therapy.
Engaging in different activities that activate most parts of the brain.. like drawing..painting. matching color board game.
string and beads game.
the more you interact with the child the more effective

results you'll get..
please consult a therapist to know what suits best on your child.
and last as a parent. I know sometimes it's overwhelming to guide a special kid.
but trust the process and be strong and patient as a parent.
