A) $y = \frac { 1 } { 2 }$
B) $y = \frac { 1 } { 30 }$
C) $y = \frac { 1 } { 15 }$
D) y=15
E)x -axis

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The horizontal asymptote of $h(x) = \frac{1}{2}(15^{-x})$ is the x-axis, or $y = 0$, because as $x$ approaches infinity, $15^{-x}$ approaches 0, making the whole expression approach 0.

Identify the Horizontal Asymptote Of h(x)=12(15−x)h ( x ) = \frac { 1 } { 2 } \left( 15 ^ { - x } \right)h(x)=21​(15−x)
