The intersection of vertical and horizontal asymptotes is at the point ( h , k ), when the rational function is written in the form below.

Graph Simple Rational Functions A rational function also has restrictions on its domain or input values. Our function posses a domain of all real numbers except x = 5, because when you substitute 5 into the function the denominator is equal to zero, and that is not allowed.
