Identify the vertical asymptote(s) of each function. check all of the boxes that apply. f(x)=x-8/x^2-3x+2 x = -8 x = -2 x = -1 x = 1 x = 2 x = 8nevermind the answer was x=1 and x=2. if anyone is wondering how to do it you can put the denominator in desmos and where the 2 points hit the x axis is your answer.

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
