Please help! I need to find the vertical asymptote of x> 3(2x-1)/(x+2).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a. y=-2 b. x=-2 c. y=1 d. x=1

OpenStudy (blockcolder):

Look for an x value where you get a zero in a denominator.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it kinda depend, since that is not a equation, it's a inequality

OpenStudy (anonymous):

take my word back, im a little lost on ur question. =(

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

for the vertical asymptote solve x + 2 = 0 as a denominator of 0 is undefined.... the solution is the vertical asymptote in this case x = -2 gives a zero denominator so x cannot equal -22 is the domain restriction and x = -2 is the vertical asymptote

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

oops domain restriction is x cannot equal -2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im curious, would the above inequality for a function? or wat is it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So the vertical asymptote is NOT x=-2?

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

the vertical appears to by x = -2

Oh o.k, just making sure. Thank you so much campbell!
