Example Question #1 : Asymptotic And Unbounded Behavior
Where are the vertical asymptotes on the graph of the function
Possible Answers:
Correct answer:
Explanation:
To solve this, find where the function cannot exist. Here, the function cannot exist if the denominator is zero. This happens at x=2 and x=-2. Graph the function on a graphing calculator or by hand to see that the function never crosses these vertical lines. It only gets infinitely close. This is characteristic of vertical asymptotes.
