To find Vertical Asymptotes of a Rational Function, why do we set the denominator equal to zero & solve?
Because it tells you the inputs that will make the outputs undefined
Because it tells you the inputs that will make the outputs 0
You don't. That's not how you find the Vertical Asymptote(s)
What does it mean to be a Vertical Asymptote?
Select all the apply
It means that input makes its output undefined
It means that input makes the denominator 0
It means that input makes its output 0
It means that input makes the numerator 0
It means its equation looks like " y = "
