just set the denominator equal to zero and factor... the values of x that make the denominator zero will be the vertical asymptotes... because you can't have zero in the denominator of a fraction...

OpenStudy (jonnyvonny):

Vertical asymptotes occur when you divide by 0, so, for this, since there is a trinomial, you may try to make it into 2 binomials, or quadratic formula (which is a last resort). Since the 30 is negative, you know that you must have a positive number and a negative one. Thus, since the 7 is negative aswell, you know that the negative has to be the greater number. This should be the result: \[x^2-7x-30=0\rightarrow (x+3)(x-10)\] x=-3,10

lol.... if you wait long enough... someone always gives the answer
