Consider f of x is equal to the fraction with numerator 7 x squared plus x plus 1 and denominator x to the 4th power plus 1 Which statement correctly uses limits to determine the end behavior of f of x ?

A
limit x to plus or minus infinity of the fraction with numerator 7 x squared plus x plus 1 and denominator x to the 4th power plus 1 is equal to limit x to plus or minus infinity of the fraction with numerator 7 x squared and denominator 1 , so the end behavior of the function is that as x to plus or minus infinity , f of x rightarrow infinity .
B
limit x to plus or minus infinity of the fraction with numerator 7 x squared plus x plus 1 and denominator x to the 4th power plus 1 is equal to limit x to plus or minus infinity of the fraction with numerator 7 and denominator x squared , so the end behavior of the function is that as x to plus or minus infinity , f of x rightarrow 0 .
C
limit x to plus or minus infinity of the fraction with numerator 7 x squared plus x plus 1 and denominator x to the 4th power plus 1 is equal to limit x to plus or minus infinity of 1 over 1 , so the end behavior of the function is that as x to plus or minus infinity , f of x rightarrow 1 .
D
limit x to plus or minus infinity of the fraction with numerator 7 x squared plus x plus 1 and denominator x to the 4th power plus 1 is equal to limit x to plus or minus infinity of the fraction with numerator 7 and denominator x squared , so the end behavior of the function is that as x to plus or minus infinity , f of x rightarrow 7 .

Consider f of x is equal to the fraction with numerator 8 times open paren x minus 1 close paren and denominator x squared plus 2 x minus 3 Which statements describe the existence of vertical asymptotes at x is equal to negative 3 and x is equal to 1 ?

A
At x is equal to negative 3 , limit x to negative 3 raised to the negative power of f times x is equal to negative infinity and limit x to negative 3 raised to the plus power of f times x is equal to infinity , so there is a vertical asymptote. At x is equal to 1 , limit x to 1 raised to the negative power of f times x is equal to 2 and limit x to 1 raised to the plus power of f times x is equal to 2 ,so there is no vertical asymptote.
B
At x is equal to negative 3 , limit x to negative 3 raised to the negative power of f times x is equal to negative infinity and limit x to negative 3 raised to the plus power of f times x is equal to infinity , so there is a vertical asymptote. At x is equal to 1 , limit x to 1 raised to the negative power of f times x is equal to infinity and limit x to 1 raised to the plus power of f times x is equal to infinity ,so there is also a vertical asymptote.
C
At x is equal to negative 3 , limit x to negative 3 raised to the negative power of f times x is equal to infinity and limit x to negative 3 raised to the plus power of f times x is equal to negative infinity , so there is a vertical asymptote. At x is equal to 1 , limit x to 1 raised to the negative power of f times x is equal to infinity and limit x to 1 raised to the plus power of f times x is equal to infinity ,so there is also a vertical asymptote.
D
At x is equal to negative 3 , limit x to negative 3 raised to the negative power of f times x is equal to infinity and limit x to negative 3 raised to the plus power of f times x is equal to negative infinity , so there is a vertical asymptote. At x is equal to 1 , limit x to 1 raised to the negative power of f times x is equal to 2 and limit x to 1 raised to the plus power of f times x is equal to 2 ,so there is no vertical asymptote.
