What is the vertical asymptote of f(x) = 1/(x - 2)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: x = 2

The governing concept is the asymptotic behavior of a rational function. A vertical asymptote occurs where the denominator becomes zero, provided the zero is not cancelled by a common factor. Here the denominator is x - 2, so solve x - 2 = 0 to obtain x = 2. As x approaches 2 from either side, the numerator remains 1 but the denominator approaches zero, causing the magnitude of the function to increase without bound. Thus x = 2 is the vertical asymptote and option B is correct. The equation y = 0 describes the horizontal asymptote because the function approaches zero as |x| becomes large. The other choices do not make the denominator vanish.
