Let f(x)=20/(1+9)^(e3x)

What are the asymptotes of the graph of f(x)
Please say each answer.
y = 9

y = 20

y = 0

y = 3

Let f(x)=20/(1+9)^(e3x) What are the asymptotes of the graph of f(x) Please say each-example-1

There's an error in your version of the function. Compare yours to the original post.

Consider what happens to this function as x becomes increasingly large:
the denominator grows quickly and without bound. The numerator stays the same. In such a situation, the function goes to zero as x increases. Thus, y = 0 is the horiz. asympt. The denom. is never zero, so there are no vert. asymp.
