A vertical asymptote is what you get when you try to divide by 0. To find where you get these, you need to look at the denominator and what values of x will make the denominator equal to 0.
In your denominator, you have (x+7)(x-5)(x-3).
What values of x makes (x+7)(x-5)(x-3)=0?
If x = -7, if x = 5, or if x = 3, then that entire expression will equal zero. (Same idea as when you solve equations by factoring.
Now the only place this can get trickier is if one of those factors — one of (x+7), (x-5), or (x-3) — also appears in the numerator. If that happens, then it’s more involved whether you have an asymptote or not. But that doesn’t happen in this example.
So the short version: Asymptotes happen when you try to divide by zero. Dividing by zero is not a good thing. So you just ask yourself, “What will make the denominator 0?”
If you divide those two you get <span>0.0024691358 hope that helped</span>
You use the rule , y2-y1/x2-x1 , to find the slope so the answer will be = 0-2/4-1 = -2/3
- 2x - 11 = - 25 :) hope this is ok
