@jaunty bane Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
graph |f(x) - L|
|f(x) - L| is the absolute difference between the function at x, and its limit.
essentially, its the distance between the two, so as x tends towards infinity, this will tend toward 0 because its getting close to its limit
Okay
So what should I be doing on the graphing calculator
Sorry I'm just really confsued when it comes to epsilon stuff
as x goes towards its limit (negative infinity), the distance between the output and the limit shrinks.
|f(x) - L| is our graph of the distance between the output of f(x) and the limit; so, "for some x, how close is the function to the limit"
epsilon is telling you "choose any distance you want, as long as its greater than 0, there is an x where f(x) is that far away from the limit"
so if you said epsilon is 1
you'd be looking for wherever f(x) is 1 away from its limit
if you said epsilon is 0.01, wherever f(x) is 0.01 away from its limit
and, as we've said twice, |f(x) - L| is the graph that tells you the distance for a given x
so if you want to know "where" f(x) is 0.01 away from its limit
look at this graph and find where its 0.01
thats your upper bound, all x less than that will be closer

im having trouble continuing with this question
could you explain how i would apply that to the problem

Alcohol in Blood
“Bin Zecher” has reached a blood alcohol level of 1.8‰ at 24:00 AM. According to a linear rule of thumb, the blood alcohol level decreases by 0.2‰ per hour. Another exponential model assumes that approximately 20% of the current blood alcohol level is reduced per hour.
• Formulate a function for the linear model describing the decrease in blood alcohol level.
how do i do this
is it f(x) = -0,2x+1,8
Yes, assuming you're using permille as the unit
• Show that the second exponential model can be represented by the function . b(t) = 1.8e^-0.2231t
how do i do this
the operator is „show“ so i dont have to do any calculations right

if it was clockwise instead of counter then how would my parametrisation change?
You can just switch the bounds e.g. instead from 0 to 2pi you go from 2pi to 0

A is a m×n matrix. The rank of A is m<n, then can we say that Any m columns of A are linearly independent?
no
just take the 1x2 matrix (1 0)
the rank=dim image=1<2
but the one column (0) is not l.i.

The equation x²-ax+b=0 has two solutions x1 and x2. The couple (a,b)∈Q²
Lets take F a set
F={px1+q/(p,q)∈Q²}
Prove that x1∈F and (x1)²∈F and x2∈F
Who can solve this is literally smart
What is F?
You look like you are dividing q by a pair of numbers
A set
Bruhhh you don't know sets
Oh wait you mean $F = {px_1 + q | (p,q)\in \mathbb{Q}^2}$?
Duhon
Yep
You used a tilted bar and I got confused

Well assuming p and q are literally any and all rationals, you can just say that when $p = \frac{1}{x_1}$ and $q = q_1 - 1$, you have that F is just the set of rational numbers, which of course contains the roots of that polynomial
Duhon
But since that feels like cheating I'm suspicious that the question is being presented wrongly
No the question is logic
Actually nvm that would mean the set F does not necessarily contain the roots
Sooo what
I'm sorry brother but I literally don't get what u want me to say
The question is very clear

The roots can be complex which means that F being just the real rationals, doesn't have them in there
Easy enough
But again
We didn't study complex numbers
It feels like it's somehow missing the point so that's why I ask you to check if you asked it right
It's right 100%
The question has another solution without complex
Then ok assuming the roots of that polynomial are always real, I suppose F does contain them since F is the same set as Q
Why F is the same set as Q
As I said, if $p_1, q_1 \in \mathbb{Q}$ and we take $p = 0$ and $q = q_1$, you have that F is just all of the rational numbers
Duhon
Replacing terms is illogic
How
I'm saying that, given p and q are both any and all rational numbers, you could make the argument that the subset where p = 0 and q is just itself is contained in F
And so Q is contained in F
And since F is, quite plainly, contained in Q, F = Q
Why you don't try to write x1 like px1+q
If you do that you will solve it
I think p and q could be irrational too
He states that $(p,q)\in \mathbb{Q}^2$
Duhon
Ah yeah my bad, I meant x1 and x2
You can use midnight formula to denote x1 and x2, right? I think you could express one in terms of the other
Niceee
X1+x2=a
X1×x2=b
I think the first one will be what you need here. For (x1)^2 you just gotta square the formula and write it in the form px1+q again
Neither of the 3 should be too difficult with that approach
Hmmmm ok

what have you tried
no i mean to solve the problem
maybe you can try expressing the volume of the prism in terms of the side length of the boxes?
how many boxes long, deep, and high is it?
is what 54
so we want to find the width, and depth, and height of the prism in terms of boxes
you should use the picture they give you to count
okay
no
,calc 12 * 6 * 6
Result:
432
cool, we counted right
but its 432 little boxes
whats the volume of a little box
That information is given
its not important
how much space is in a little box
its 1/2 inch on a side right
so whats the length width and height
1/2 inch high
1/2 inch long
1/2 inch wide
volume of a box is L * W * H
calculate the volume of a little box
yea
so we have 432 boxes
and each box is 1/8 cubic inch
,calc 432 * 1/8
Result:
54

Ok so this is my the problem I'm currently working on. I'm trying to use the comparison test and p test to determine if it's convergent or divergent but I can't figure out what im doing wrong.
So suppose we know that f(x) < g(x)
We know that if f(x) is divergent, then g(x) must also be divergent.
We also know that if g(x) is convergent, then f(x) must be convergent.
So now we have the function $\int_2^\infty \frac{1 + \sin x}{x^3} , dx$
Now, lets create a simpler integral that we can use the P test on:
$\int_2^\infty \frac{1}{x^3} , dx$
Now we know that:
$\int_2^\infty \frac{1 + \sin x}{x^3} dx > \int_2^\infty \frac{1}{x^3} dx$
Now that we have an integral in the form of \int_2^\infty \frac{1}{x^P}, we can use the P test.
Since $3 > 1$, we know that \int_2^\infty \frac{1}{x^3} converges.
Unfortunatly though, that doesn't really help me figure out whether $\int_2^\infty \frac{1 + \sin x}{x^3} converges or not. What can I do?
what are u comparing what to
im trying to compare $\int_2^\infty \frac{1 + \sin x}{x^3} dx > \int_2^\infty \frac{1}{x^3} dx$
dingypine
but that doesnt really help
what if the numerator was 2?
because the smaller one converges
For which?
the one you can change
sin x could be negative?
Well if the numerator was 2, then it would be >= at certain points
what are bounds for sinx
-1 < x < 1
what are bound for 1+sinx
0 < x < 2
I'm honestly not sure, are you referring to $\int_2^\infty \frac{1}{x^3}$ as the one with the p test? Or $\int_2^\infty \frac{2}{x^3}$
dingypine
you goal is to do what
Find a function that is bigger than than the original one so i can use the p test
well, u can only compare when u are sure that a even greater integral converge
ok, so why did i tell you to try 2?
Because it's bigger than the original
bigger or equal, but thats good enough
So $\int_2^\infty \frac{2}{x^3} >= \int_2^\infty \frac{1 + \sin x}{x^3} , dx$
>
dingypine
if you want to avoid that, you can also use 3
Ok so that means since the bigger one converges, the smaller one should also converge
So basically, you found a function that has greater than or equal to bounds than 1 + sin(x), and we were able to use the p test
I just wanna know though, how did you know to search for a bigger function than a smaller function? @fair juniper
intuitively, sin x grows slower than x, but x/x^3 = 1/x^2 whose integral converges by the p-test
so yeah first make a guess as to whether it converges or diverges by a comparison
and then the specific proof technique you need is the comparison test, so a smaller integral than a convergent integral will also converge
the logic behind it is the "domination", if you want to prove that a function converges, you have to find a function that dominates it (its bigger or equal), if the bigger one converges so does the smaller one, if the smaller one converges, you know nothing about the bigger one

I think she didn’t name the sides correctly ?
a should be always the bottom hypotenuse.
Yes?
i dont get what you mean, calling things a or b or c doesnt really matter
could call the sides x, p and w if you wanted 🙄
@dense jay

'a' need not be at the bottom, who told you that?

If you find area of triangle, you use the formula P = a*h / 2
Ok, and?
And?
they are just variables, dont be so rigid, damn
(ah)/2 = (ha)/2
No
b is not necessarily the longer side

If you're thinking a is the shorter side and h is the hypotenuse here then you're wrong

Give me table for:
Hektoliter, dm, etc milliliter centiliter mililiter
Just search on google; it's available.
this?
There ain't hectolitre.
The litre (Commonwealth spelling) or liter (American spelling) (SI symbols L and l, other symbol used: ℓ) is a metric unit of volume. It is equal to 1 cubic decimetre (dm3), 1000 cubic centimetres (cm3) or 0.001 cubic metres (m3). A cubic decimetre (or litre) occupies a volume of 10 cm × 10 cm × 10 cm (see figure) and is thus equal to one-thousa...
Yes there is
Give me for measurement
what do you mean "for measurement?"
Are you trying to convert between cubic meters and liters?
1m^3 = 1000L
0.1m^3 = 1 hectolitre
If so, the table in the wikipedia article I linked provides that
So it’s milli, centi, deci, and above liter, deca, hecto, kilo.

im not sure if im doing this correctly?
would that -x^2 work?
<@&286206848099549185>
Can you do the next step plz
so.
adding that - to the x^2 was on the right path...
You should do it for everything
Yeah but I'm confused if you mean it only for x^2 or everything cause you should do it for everything
that helps solved the next issue of what to do with the 37 and 5
37-5=32
ye
oh mb, made a mistake there, i did -3y+5y=2y lol
That's why you should be careful lol
uhhh erm heh.
pretty susure i did something wrong...
waitnoh.
huh. The x^2

ohh

Yep that's right
If have more doubt just ask me I'll try to help if I can
got it. Thank yoyou so much for yoyour help!
No problem
say... do i have to sqrt the 25?
Yeah x can be 5 or-5
Probably lol
-5?
Yeah either 5 or -5
thought it just be +5 only since... both 25s are +
hm. Thank you again, for your help.

My approach so far is that I assume a half-open interval [0,1) bijective on the example set I_x and if I can show that this is bijective, then the set I, which has I_x as a subset, must also be uncountable. But I can't get any further after that
What's the question
Show that the set I of all inductive subsets of
R is uncountable.
Note: First consider that for all x ∈ ]0, 1[ the sets Ix := N∪{x+n | n ∈ N}
are inductive.
@little helm Has your question been resolved?
ik but do i not have to show why it is uncountable
because we only showed half opened or closed but not fully open which means that i would have to show it again
Any open interval of the real numbers is uncountable. I guess you could show that if you want.
Removing one element from an infinite set does not change its size
they said that i have to show that it is bijectiv somehow
and that i have to find a function that shows that Ix has the same size as [0,1) because it is uncountable
You don't need bijective, only injective. You only need an inequality
ah because you mean, that i can show that it is still uncountable because an uncountable intervall doesnt hit every element?

Hello , im struggling with this homework and I really need help from someone who could explain it to me … thank you❤️
Which parts are you struggling with?
I guess the basics
I literally can’t solve anything so the basics - I hope that if someone could explain on a simpler problem I could do my homework with my own knowledge
linear algebra/functions
Especially struggling with math in English so I can’t even explain well what I don’t understand 😭😭
Where are you studying? These problems are weirdly obtuse for the subject matter
Using \Gamma instead of saying graph 
This is the most "I have tenure and won't teach your night class anymore" assignment I have ever seen
ah.. its a mathematic university haha, english is not my main language and they are trying to make us get used to harder problems idk
TELL ME ABOUT IT
and our proffesor uses the terms so WEIRDLY so we cant use chatgpt
etc..
just do one problem at a time
the classes also dont help cant lie.. i dont understand it
do you know what 3 with overline is
yes
do you know how to find gcd of 3 numbers
i have no idea what is gcd
In mathematics, the greatest common divisor (GCD), also known as greatest common factor (GCF), of two or more integers, which are not all zero, is the largest positive integer that divides each of the integers. For two integers x, y, the greatest common divisor of x and y is denoted
gcd
(
x
,
...
im a lost case sorry 😭
you're probably meant to find all divisors of all 3 numbers and find the largest one of the 3
,w divisors of 264
oh i think i get it
so its 0.3 periodically times 12 ?
did you finish with checking that 12 divides 312
yea this is a nice round number
okay so i just do that with all of them
and then im supposed to do something uh
then i will get the numbers for linear functions
and idk what there, solve them or what

guys does it make sense to say that 1-1+1-1=2-2 can be 0=0 and 2=2 depending on how you manipulate it?
and 1=1
add k to both sides you will have k = k
if i move the minus ones to the other side they will become positive thus 1+1=2-2+1+1
its not saying theyre equivalent statements
but theyre all true statements
You can deduce it, that is correct
so that is possible?
and it will be a true statement
since im following the rules of algebra
so the original equation can be 2=2 and 0=0 and 1=1 depending on how you manipulate it algebraically
No
how
The original equation is the first
Not the one you want
If my first equation is 3=3
Then I add 1 to both sides
4=4
But still the original equation is 3=3
1-1+1-1=2-2. but im not adding anything im just moving the numbers around by following algebraic rules
Incorrect
how
1-1+(+1)+1-1+(+1)=2-2+(+1)+(+1)
im just moving the negative ones to the other side
right?
You can clearly see, you are not moving
You are adding
Your visualization is thinking you moved something but you didnt
You only added to both sides
if you have 2x-1=0 you can move -1 to the other side by addding 1 on each side thus 2x=1
No
You add 1 to both sides
You do not move
There is no such thing as move to the other side in an equation
"by adding 1 on each side"
sure you do this is just how we speak in conversation
okay my point is 1-1+1-1=2-2 can be 2=2 and 0=0 and 1=1
Whatever you do to one side you do to the other
if you add
But if you read what he said
1 on each side
You will understand why I am correcting him
yea he was wrong before
this is fine though
guys obviously i know i shouldt just move stuff
those are statements you deduced from your original equation
Yes, but that doesnt change the original equation
yes
so my question is:
what does it mean to get different values for the equalities since im just following algebraic rules
Your question is not clear (or i cant read) 
it means you’re just demonstrating 2=2 is a true statement just as 1=1 and 0=0 is
i could for instance add 69 to both sides in each and still get a true statement
since you’re following algebraic rules you’re just maintaining equality and creating more and more true statements
so i can derive infinite true statements from this equation?
yea sure
not sure how useful that is for you
but go ahead
keep adding 1 to both sides
Since there are infinite numbers
alright thanks guys!

. @trail pawn ask your question here
how do I do inverse functions
replace x with y

am i on the right track
instead of g(x) just put y (since y is equal to g(x) in this case)
^
but your first table is good
wait why is it 3x i thought we just multiplied it
like this
then it would get canceled out
like this, but now you must solve for y
you have to multiply both sides by 3, so you get 3x = y-2
and then y=3x+2
why did u watch the y and the 3x and make the -2 a +2
only y-2 is divided by 3
yeah i understand that part but why did it make it switch
what do you mean
you said this and it threw me off because the y was o the other side of the equation
on*
wait wouldn’t the 2 add to the 3 and make it 5
yeah they're not like terms
wait so it would just be left alone like that
your goal is to get Y alone
No that’s the final answer

I dont particularly grasp the descriptions of peicewise functions, I managed to guess two of them based of my notes but if possible I need an explanation
I get that when the line is parallel with the x axis I can just set the description as the lines y axis
do you know how to find the slope of a line?
yes
do you remember point slope form?
LocalLunatic
simply move the y_0 over
and distribute the m if youre feeling fancy
combine and youve got slope intercept form
and thats the description?
yup
Alright, thanks for your help :)
imagine covering the graph with your hands or something
you can make the guess that the graph is a line
but when you remove your hands, you notice its only on the interval
so you specify, that y=-2x+5 if 1<x<=6
This makes much more sense, thank you
youre welcome

I have this recursion function, I need to find a general function for an
I do not know where to start
the formula doesn't seem to match up at all with the given values
It does
3=2*3-3
nm i misread
I noticed that the function is even
oh and I forgot to mention, n can be any integer
the closed form for a_n on N u {-1} is unique, so we could hope that this closed form works for all integers. otherwise we could take the recursive relation and flip everything around
so a_(n-1) = 3a_n - a_(n+1) would be the useful bit
I would
so like, there is a clean way to determine the closed form for a linear homogeneous recursive sequence with constant coefficients that involves generating functions, if you have heard of that
I did not heard of that
or, you may have been told to use the relation's characteristic equation or whatever it's called, and deduce that a_n is a linear combination of its roots raised to the n'th power
like, you replace each a_k with x^k and solve for x in "x^(n+1) = 3x^n - x_(n-1)"
I wasn't told anything, it's not a homework question, it's a recursion function from some data and I want to find the general equation for an
ah, ok
let's just call b_n = a_(n-1), so that we have an equivalent sequence given by b_0 = 3, b_1 = 2, b_(n+2) = 3b_(n+1) - b_n
It's the first time I heard the term "linear homogeneous recursive sequence", but I googled it and found a paper about that, it says at the beggining that it will show how to solve 2nd order linear recurrence relations, if that somehow helps
ok
so this points to a poly eqn x^2 = 3x - 1 after some killing of the x^n's
x^2 - 3x + 1 has some irrational roots s = (3-sqrt(5)) / 2 and t = (3+sqrt(5)) / 2, so we expect b_n = us^n + vt^n to work for all n, for some u,v
we would use the initial conditions on the sequence to solve for u and v
then shift it back to the a_n world when we're done
we can check inductively that this proposed closed form works for n >= -1
but we can also verify whether or not it works for n < -1 inductively as well
Very interesting, while I'm solving this equation, can you tell me why did you write it in the first place?
if it doesn't, define a new sequence c_n = a_(-n + 2) or something, and do it all again
so I've heard two justifications for this
the one I mentioned earlier involves generating functions
you define G(x) = sum_(n=0)^inf b_nx^n
I already checked with the data set, this recursion function works for all integers n
peel apart two terms, representing two initial conditions, and use the given recurrence relation on the rest of it
you eventually get an equation like G(x) = i + jxG(x) + kx^2G(x)
hence you can find a closed form for G(x), and if you check, it'll be 1/(x^2 - 3x + 1)
somewhat coincidentally actually, because I believe if your recursive thing was like, b_(n+2) = 3b_(n+1) - 2b_n
then G(x) = 1/(2x^2 - 3x + 1)
we do partial fraction decomp on G(x) to rewrite it back into a series as before -- this demands that you find the roots for that poly in the denominator
that's most of it
the other way is cooler
the set of all recursive sequences (f_n) satisfying the same relation -- f_(n+2) = 3f_(n+1) - f_n -- is a real vector space, and it's spanned by two sequences (u^n) and (v^n) for some u,v
I don't remember the proof for why, sorry lol
the geometric series way is more constructive but it takes a long time
I see
Well I tried to solve it but I got it wrong for some reason
Can you find the mistake?
@jagged harbor please?
yeah I'm staring, I think the coefficient for v on the right is -2sqrt(5), not 6
and we subtract 9+3sqrt(5) from 4, giving [-5-3sqrt(5)] / [-2sqrt(5)] = [5+3sqrt(5)] / 2sqrt(5) therefore
oh shit I treated the plus sign as a minus sign for some reason
you are right
lemme fix it
It works now
thank you so much
Wasn't really in nature
I saw a video in my recommendations about "a hard question from India" that stated:
If x^2-3x+1=0
Then what is x^5+1/x^5 equal to?
The question looked easy to me so I tried it, then I understood I needed to take the fifth power of 3+sqrt5 and I didn't want to do that, so I plugged it into wolfram alpha, and it yielded 123.
I tried x^2+1/x^2 for the same number just because I thought for other number the result will be irrational and 5 is the only special case for which the result is integer, but I was surprised to find that for every interger power the result was an integer.
So I wrote which power yielded which number, and tried to find the relation between them.
I found the recursion function, but didn't know how to continue from here.
Now I plan to find a general formula for a number "k" to plug into x^n+1/x^n, and not just the specific case of x=(3+sqrt5)/2
MindYourDecisions's
oh word
Bruh now I understand that it's much simpler than that, well never mind, it was nice to know how to deal with these kinds of recursion functions
Again, thank you so much
Bruh I literally took a general equation then turned it into a recursion function and then asked how to turn it back into a general equation
I'm a genius
Anyway, thank you

Sub a for (2k-1)/2 on the left
seems to be the most simplified, can't do much more
I don't think it can
over what?
the best you can do is write it as ((18k-36)-73)/(2k-1_
you have to specify in terms of what you wanna do the simplification

guys how did we get the number 109 and how did we excute both number 2
You got 109 after simplifying.
how
after multiplying the denominator and numerator by 2, you get on the numerator:
(2K-1) * 9 - 2 * 2 * 25
so 18K - 9 - 100
so 18K - 109

Why does the answer key have a 6 and I don’t?
oh C is an arbitrary constant of integration
there's always another constant $c'$ such that $c' = 6 + c$, for all $c \in \mathbb R$
south
so yeah they should be collapsing that into:
answer + c'
Ok but where did they get it in the first place why didn’t I get a 6?

I was doing physics and got stuck on this integral
I want to integrate
2GMdx{1-x/(R^2+x^2)^1/2/[(R^2)*H]
between the limits 0 to H
G,M,R are constants
what's d
differential element dx
^
so should i remove the constants and just the function
depends what you mean by "remove"
without constants it is {1-[x/(R^2+x^2)]}dx
from 0 to H
wait
no its right
{1-[x/(R^2+x^2)]}dx
$\int 1-\frac{x}{(R^2+x^2)^{1/2}}dx$?
where
on R^2 + x^2
riemann
use $\int f + g = \int f + \int g$
riemann
first integral will be simple. then use $u = x^2$ substitution on the second integral
riemann
yea that works too if you keep track of limits appropriately

The two vertices A(-10;-10) and B(6; 2) of a triangle ABC and the intersection point H(-3; 4) of its heights are given. How to determine the coordinates of vertex C?
assume C to be some (x,y) then use the fact that AH is perpendicular to BC and BH is perpendicular to AC
you'll get 2 linear equations
so we have to find vector AH and vector BH
so the slope of AH is 2 and of BH = - 2/9
yes
find slopes of BC and AC and use this
Slope of AC is - 1/2 and slope of BC is 9/2
I got C(2;-16)
@olive karma Has your question been resolved?
No I think I might have made a mistake
AC: y - y1 = m(x-x1)
y-(-10) = - 1/2(x-(-10))
y+10=-1/2(x+10)
2y+20=-x-10
x+2y+30=0
BC: y-2=9/2(x-6)
2y-4=9(x-6)
9x-2y-50=0
So
x + 2y + 30 = 0
9x - 2y - 50 = 0
10x - 20 =0
x + 2y + 30 = 0
x = 2
2 + 2y + 30 = 0
x = 2
y = - 16
Where is the mistake?!
@olive karma Has your question been resolved?
You don't have to do it that complicated
The sum of all of the coordinates A B and C is equal to the orthocentre
So A+B-H gives us C.
So C should be (-1, -12)
You are right
But still, where is the mistake in that solution?
How did you get a slope of -1/2 for AC
can I see a drawing
cuz for me im getting the slope of BC as -1/2
@olive karma Has your question been resolved?
I think I might have swaped the values accidentally
You are probably right
The slope of line AC should be perpendicular to the altitude BH so it's going to be the negative reciprocal of the slope BH
No, I still get different values for C
There is something fundamentally flawed with my approach
That's not right
Yes it is you can search it
lol. You have read just part of the statement 🙂
??? bro r u high
Mind what the origin of the coordinate system is 🙂
it literally doesn't matter you can translate the image?
just set the circumcenter of the circle as the origin
it does matter. You have to find a translation vector and take it into account
idk what ur talking abt
just use that formula correctly.
sure
my bad sorry
i thought that if u translated it then the translation vector would cancel
thx for clarifying

$\int_{-\infty}^{+\infty}xe^{-x^2}\dd x$
i want to determine the convergence of this integral
i first test the convergence from the bound -infty to 0
so far what i got is
$\lim_{u\to-\infty}\left(-\frac12+\frac12e^{-u^2}\right)$
how would i evaluate this limit without lhopital?
You should know the end behaviour of e^-x, right?
-0.5 + 0.5 * lim 1/(e^(u^2))
lim goes to 0 and ur left with -0.5
oh lmfao i forgot e^-x = 1/e^x
yeah its 0
but anyway i was overthinking shit. thanks

I don't understand how to calculate the slant asymptote of a function correctly
what kind of function in particular?
how does it matter which
the strategy is different for rational functions vs. other types of functions
what is the difference between rational functions and other types of functions
a rational function is a fraction where both the numerator and the denominator is a polynomial
by other functions i mean anything that isn't a rational function
so where both fractions have ^2+?
what would be an example of a non rational function?
sin(x), sqrt(x), 10^x, log(x)
for rational functions, there is a slant asymptote only if the numerator has a degree 1 higher than the deniminator
you can find it by performing polynomial long division/synthetic division
what are the steps to this
Long division polynomial is the process of dividing polynomials with other polynomials. Learn about this interesting concept of long division of polynomials, the methods, and solve a few examples.
if you look up polynomial long division you will find many guides to this. here are a couple:

https://www.khanacademy.org/math/algebra-home/alg-polynomials/alg-long-division-of-polynomials/v/polynomial-division
if the remainder is negative do you include it
the asymptote is the quotient you get. the remainder is not relevant to the asymptote
okay so for 16x^2 + 12x -2/8x + 10 i got 2x+4 with a remainder of -38
so y = 2x+4?
$$\polylongdiv{16x^2+12x-2}{8x+10}$$

how is 20x still -20x and not +20x
they are subtracting it

trig identities
I'd suggest you multiply each term by the conjugate of the denominator
for which side?
