Asymptote:A line or curve that a graph approaches but never touches. In this case, the graph of p(x) = 1/x^4 will approach the y-axis (vertical asymptote) but never actually intersect it.
Inverse Variation: When two variables are inversely proportional, meaning that as one variable increases, the other variable decreases at a consistent rate. The function p(x) = 1/x^4 exhibits inverse variation because as x approaches zero, p(x) increases without bound.
Limit:The value that a function approaches as the input approaches a certain point or infinity. As x approaches zero in the function p(x) = 1/x^4, the limit is positive infinity.
