B) $y = x + 9$
C) $y = x + \frac { 9 } { 7 }$
D) no slant asymptote

A slant (or oblique) asymptote occurs when the degree of the numerator is exactly one more than the degree of the denominator in a rational function. In this case, the degrees of both the numerator and the denominator are the same (both are 2), so there is no slant asymptote.
