SOLUTION: Find the vertical asymptotes of F(x)= (3x+5)/(6x^2-x-2). Would this problem be x=1/2, x=-2/3. or x-1/2, x 2/3 I am not sure about this one. Any help would be greatly appreci

To find the vertical asymptotes, simply set the denominator equal to zero to get . From there, solve for 'x' to find the x values that make the denominator equal to zero. These x values will be the equations of the vertical asymptotes.
