What is the asymptote for the graph of this logarithmic function?<br><br> f(x) = log3(x – 1)
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Vertical Asymptote:

x=1

Horizontal asymptote:

it does not exist

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

f(x)=log_3(x-1)

Vertical asymptote:

we know that vertical asymptotes are values of x where f(x) becomes +inf or -inf

we know that any log becomes -inf when value inside log is zero

so, we can set value inside log to zero

and then we can solve for x

x-1=0

we get

x=1

Horizontal asymptote:

we know that

horizontal asymptote is a value of y when x is +inf or -inf

For finding horizontal asymptote , we find lim x-->inf or -inf

\lim_{x \to \infty}  f(x)= \lim_{x \to \infty}log_3(x-1)

\lim_{x \to \infty}  f(x)=log_3(\infty-1)

\lim_{x \to \infty}  f(x)=undefined

so, it does not exist
