Question 186594: how do I graph this? I take Insight school online, so don't have a book title.
y= x / x-12 I'm a little confused about asymptotes and holes and want to make sure i'm doing it right. thank-you! Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! y = x / (x-12) I'm a little confused about asymptotes and holes and want to make sure i'm doing it right. thank-you
------------------
Your problem has an asymptote at x = 12 becuase x=12 would put
a zero in the denominator and not in the numerator.
----------------------
Example of a "hole"
y = [(x+1)(x-12)/(x-12)
This function has a "hold" at x=12 because x=12 would put
a zero in the denominator and ALSO in the numerator.
The graph of this function would look like the line y = x+1 but
it would have a "hold" at x=12
