vertical asymptotes are x = -3 and x = 2
Explanation:
Vertical asymptotes occur as the denominator of a rational function tends to zero. To find the equation/s set the denominator equal to zero.
solve : (x+3)(x-2) = 0 → x = -3 , x = 2
#rArr x = -3" and " x = 2" are the asymptotes " #
graph{1/((x+3)(x-2)) [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
