Question

Use graphs and tables to find the limit and identify any vertical asymptotes of

Answer 1

@amistre64

Answer 2

see, its a different function altogether than the last one.

Answer 3

yea

Answer 4

a vertical asymptote is defined to be what?

Answer 5

doesnt it apply to like the 0s of a rational function

Answer 6

non removable 0s of the denominator sure

Answer 7

ok

Answer 8

so then would it be 4?

Answer 9

once we factor out ALL of the common factors top to bottom, whats left on the bottom defines our vertasmptote

Answer 10

\[\frac1{x-4}\]
it should be simple to see that this has no common factors, and so when x-4 = 0 we have a vertical asymptote yes

Answer 11

but this is not approached using tables and graphs is it?

Answer 12

no

Answer 13

we still have to define a limit :)

graph it

Answer 14

hmm i am sorry but i dont really know how to graph this :/

Answer 15

plot points .... is the most basic way to do it

Answer 16

make a table of values ... another basic approach

Answer 17

memorizing parent function .. a more advanced approach
