Question

Use graphs and tables to find the limit and identify any vertical asymptotes of limit of 1 divided by the quantity x minus 9 as x approaches 9 from the left.

-∞ ; x = -9
1 ; no vertical asymptotes
∞ ; x = -9
-∞ ; x = 9

Answer 1

Answer 2

if you set denominator equal to 0, you get x=9 for vertical asymptote

since you are approaching from left, plug in 8.999 .... this gives -1000 so limit goes to neg infinity
