Question 626786: Use f%28x%29=%28-2x%5E2%2B5x-3%29%2F%28x%5E2-1%29 to calculate the vertical asymptote(s) of f(x)

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
f%28x%29=-%282x-3%29%28cross%28x-1%29%29%2Fcross%28%28x-1%29%29%2F%28x%2B1%29
= %28-2x%2B3%29%2F%28x%2B1%29
The denominator is zero when x=-1.
The vertical asymptote is highlight%28x=-1%29
