Asymptote and Holes Practice

• No vertical asymptotes.

• One vertical asymptote: x = 4

• Two vertical asymptotes: x = -3 and x = -7

• Three vertical asymptotes:  x = -3, x = 4, and x = -7

The holes of a rational function occur when :

• my pencil pokes a hole in the paper I'm working on

• there is something left in the denominator

• the value of f(0)

• a factor in the denominator cancels with a factor in the numerator
