Answer:

There is no oblique asymptote

Explanation:

Oblique asymptote case arises when degree of numerator is greater than denominator

Here, we have given the expression
(x+4)/(3x^2+5x-2)

Here, degree of numerator is less than denominator

Hence, no oblique asymptote.

The expression should be
(3x^2+5x-2)/(x+4) to get the oblique asymptote.

x + 4
f(x) = _______
3x^2 + 5x - 2

since the degree of the numerator is less than the degree of the denominator, it has no oblique asymptote.
