Question

At which value of x does the graph of the function F(x) have a vertical asymptote?

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -8  &  x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical asymptote occur when denominator is 0.

So to find the x-values, we need to middle term factor the denominator. Shown below:

$x^2+5x-24\\=(x+8)(x-3)\\x=3, -8$

Thus, at x = 3 and at x = -8  --  there is vertical asymptote.
