Question

What is the equation of the verticle asymptote of the graph:
y=(1/x-3)+2

Answer 1

so it's

\[y = \frac{ 1 }{ x-3 } + 2\]

like that?

Answer 2

yes exactly

Answer 3

okay....how do we find a vertical asymptote?

we have a verticle asymptote when the denominator = 0

because any fraction with the denominator = 0 makes it not work right?

so what number...makes YOUR denominator = 0?

Answer 4

3

Answer 5

i think

Answer 6

correct :)

so this graph will have a vertical asymptote at 3

so how do we write that as an equation "as your question asks"

how do we make a verticle line in a graph? we make x=something right?

so for a vertical line at 3

we would have x = 3

Answer 7

Ohhh i see

Answer 8

this is a lot easier than i thought thank you so much

Answer 9

lol no problem :)
