Solution Steps

Step 1: Determine the degrees of P(x) and Q(x)

Degree of P(x): 2, Degree of Q(x): 2

Step 2: Compare the degrees

Since the degree of P(x) is equal to the degree of Q(x),

Step 3: Calculate the leading coefficients ratio

The leading coefficient of P(x) is 2, and of Q(x) is 5.

Final Answer:

the horizontal asymptote is \(y = 0.4\).
