Please see below.

Explanation:

.

Vertical asymptotes can be found by setting the denominator equal to zero and finding the roots:

#x(x-4)=0#

#x=0 and 4#

But we also have #x-4# in the numerator which means at #x=4# we get the value of #0/0# for the function. This means there is a hole in the function at #x=4#

So, your only vertical asymptote is #x=0# which is the #y#-axis.
