Question

Consider the table representing a rational function. Which equation could represent a vertical asymptote of the graph of the function?

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given table, we see that for x = -1, the function is not defined, that means that the rational function has a restriction there, and such restriction is shown as an asymptote in the graph of the function.

So, basically, we could say that the given rational function has one asymptote and it's at x = -1, which is a vertical asymptote, because all forms like x = k, are vertical lines, that is, they are parallel to the vertical axis.

Therefore, the right answer is the third choice.

Answer 2

(C) x= -1
