Given:
The function is
To find:
The vertical asymptote of the given function.
Solution:
Vertical asymptote are the vertical line passes thought the values for which the function is not defined.
To find the vertical asymptote, equate the denominator equal to 0.
We have,
Denominator is (x+2).
The vertical asymptote is .
Therefore, the correct option is B.
Assuming we're dealing with , which is the same as writing (x+2)/(-5) < 4, then the answer is choice C.
We multiply both sides by -5 and this will flip the inequality sign.
-------------------------------------
Multiplying or dividing both sides by a negative number flips the inequality sign.
An example would be saying -2x < 10 leads to x > -5
What we can do is divide both sides by -2 and flip the inequality sign, or we could follow the steps shown below
- -2x < 10
- 0 < 10+2x ... adding 2x to both sides
- -10 < 2x ... subtracting 10 from both sides; this is one way to see why the sign flip happens
- 2x > -10
- x > -10/2 ..... dividing both sides by 2
- x > -5
