Where are the asymptotes for the following function located? f (x) = StartFraction 14 Over (x minus 5) (x + 1) EndFraction

We want to find the asymptotes of the given function.

There are two vertical asymptotes, one at x =5 and the other at x = -1.

First, we can briefly describe what an asymptote is.

An asymptote is a tendency to a given value that never reaches the actual value.

For example, we have vertical asymptotes (that tend to infinity or negative infinity) when we have a quotient with a denominator equal to zero.

Then, for our function:

We need to find the values of x such that the denominator becomes zero.

Is ratter easy to see that if x = 5, or x = -1, the denominator becomes equal to zero, then we will have two vertical asymptotes, one at x = 5 and other at x = -1.

2 vertical asymptotes occurring at x = 5 and x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

given

recall that asymptotic occur at the locations that will make the equation undefined. In this case, the asymptote will occur at x-locations which will cause the denominator to become zero (and hence undefined)

Equating the denominator to zero,

(x-5)(x+1) = 0

(x-5) =0

x = 5 (first asymptote)

or (x+1) = 0

x = -1  (2nd asymptote)

it will be a cylinder. with a diameter of 8 and 4 single pieces high
