SOLUTION: Find an equation that when it is reciprocated, it has vertical asymptotes of x=-1 x=2

Question 1151184: Find an equation that when it is reciprocated, it has vertical asymptotes of x=-1 x=2
Answer by MathLover1(20850) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Given a function and the corresponding reciprocal function, the graph of the reciprocal function will have vertical asymptotes where the function has zeros (the x-intercept(s) of the graph of the function).

so, and are x-intercept: (,), (,)
so, use root product theorem to find equation first

so, when it is reciprocated we have
f(x)=1/y
f(x)=1/((x+1)(x-2)) for and
note: the vertical asymptotes are the values that are not allowed in the domain, they are in denominator
so, and are asymptotes
