Answer:

There is an asymptote at x = 0

There is an asymptote at y = 23

Explanation:

Given the function:

(23x+14)/x

Vertical asymptote is gotten by equating the denominator to zero

Since the denominator is x, hence the vertical asymptote is at x = 0. This shows that there is an asymptote at x = 0

Also for the horizontal asymptote, we will take the ratio of the coefficient of the variables in the numerator and denominator

Coefficient of x at the numerator = 23

Coefficient of x at the denominator = 1

Ratio = 23/1 = 23

This means that there is an asymptote at y = 23
