Find the Asymptotes f(x)=a^x
Step 1
Find where the expression is undefined.
The domain of the expression is all real numbers except where the expression is undefined. In this case, there is no real number that makes the expression undefined.
Step 2
The vertical asymptotes occur at areas of infinite discontinuity.
No Vertical Asymptotes
Step 3
Since the limit does not exist, there are no horizontal asymptotes.
No Horizontal Asymptotes
Step 4
Since there is no remainder from the polynomial division, there are no oblique asymptotes.
No Oblique Asymptotes
Step 5
This is the set of all asymptotes.
No Vertical Asymptotes
No Horizontal Asymptotes
No Oblique Asymptotes
