Question 20 • FL-1200330-Algebra 2 CR

In a rational function, if there is a vertical asymptote at an x-value, then that value of x will produce a 0 in the denominator. Please select the best answer from the choices provided

Answer
A
T
B
F

Explanation

A vertical asymptote occurs where the function’s denominator is zero after any common factors have been canceled. For example, in f(x) = 1/(x − 2), the denominator is zero at x = 2, and the graph has a vertical asymptote there. So the statement is true; choice A, “T,” is correct.
