Asymptoot Rekenmachine

Vind asymptoten stap voor stap

De rekenmachine probeert de verticale, horizontale en scheve asymptoten van de functie te vinden, met uitgewerkte stappen.

Enter a function: `f(x)=`

If the calculator did not compute something or you have identified an error, or you have a suggestion/feedback, please contact us.

Solution

Your input: find the vertical, horizontal and slant asymptotes of the function $$$f(x)=x + \sin{\left(x \right)}$$$

Vertical Asymptotes

The line $$$x=L$$$ is a vertical asymptote of the function $$$y=x + \sin{\left(x \right)}$$$, if the limit of the function (one-sided) at this point is infinite.

In other words, it means that possible points are points where the denominator equals $$$0$$$ or doesn't exist.

So, find the points where the denominator equals $$$0$$$ and check them.

As can be seen, there are no such points, so this function doesn't have vertical asymptotes.

Horizontal Asymptotes

Line $$$y=L$$$ is a horizontal asymptote of the function $$$y=f{\left(x \right)}$$$, if either $$$\lim_{x \to \infty} f{\left(x \right)}=L$$$ or $$$\lim_{x \to -\infty} f{\left(x \right)}=L$$$, and $$$L$$$ is finite.

Calculate the limits:

$$$\lim_{x \to \infty}\left(x + \sin{\left(x \right)}\right)=\infty$$$ (for steps, see limit calculator).

$$$\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(x + \sin{\left(x \right)}\right)=-\infty$$$ (for steps, see limit calculator).

Thus, there are no horizontal asymptotes.

Slant Asymptotes

Line $$$y=mx+b$$$ is a slant asymptote of the function $$$y=f{\left(x \right)}$$$, if either $$$m=\lim_{x \to \infty}\left(\frac{f{\left(x \right)}}{x}\right)=L$$$ or $$$m=\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\frac{f{\left(x \right)}}{x}\right)=L$$$, and $$$L$$$ is finite and nonzero.

Calculate the first limit:

$$$\lim_{x \to \infty}\left(\frac{x + \sin{\left(x \right)}}{x}\right)=1$$$ (for steps, see limit calculator).

Since the value of the limit is finite and nonzero, then there is a slant asymptote with $$$m=1$$$.

To calculate $$$b$$$, find $$$b=\lim_{x \to \infty}\left(- m x + f{\left(x \right)}\right)=\lim_{x \to \infty} \sin{\left(x \right)}=\text{NaN}$$$ (for steps, see limit calculator).

Therefore, the slant asymptote is $$$y=\text{NaN}$$$.

Calculate the second limit:

$$$\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\frac{x + \sin{\left(x \right)}}{x}\right)=1$$$ (for steps, see limit calculator).

Since the value of the limit is finite and nonzero, then there is a slant asymptote with $$$m=1$$$.

But we've already found an asymptote with such a slope.

Answer

No vertical asymptotes.

No horizontal asymptotes.

Slant asymptote: $$$y=\text{NaN}$$$
