The question is for any rational function. I give one example in picture below. There we can see that first part of the "rule" is true. we indeed have vertical asymptotes at every x value where denominator is zero in this case x = 3 and x = 1. but second part of the rule is not true. we can see that if we inverse x ( we have factor that looks like a - x we get positive function between asymptotes.
Answer is False
Answer:
1/2a-19=-13
Step-by-step explanation:
One half of a number represents the phrase "1/2a" (in this case the variable/number is 'a'". Then because it says "nineteen less than", that means you subtract 19 from one half of the variable.

You probably are interested in expressing the given equation as a quadratic equation in u, as it will make it easy to find the solutions.
Let u = x²
So,
u² = x⁴
So, the given equation can be written as:
u² - 17u + 16 = 0
Now the equation is quadratic in u and the solutions can be calculated using quadratic formula or factorization.
