Question

At which values of x does the function F(x) have a vertical asymptote? Check all that apply.A.8B.-8C.-9D.9E.1F.-1

Answer 1

Given that there is a function f(x), we need to find for what value of x does that function has vertical asymptotes.

The function is

$f(x)=\frac{9}{(x-1)(x-8)}$

Explanation -

For any function, the vertical asymptotes occur where the denominator is zero but the numberator is not.

Hence, the denominator of the given function will be zero when x = 1 and x = 8

So the final answer is 1 and 8.
