What is the vertical asymptote of y = 1/(x − 6)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: x = 6

For a rational function, the vertical asymptote is found by setting the denominator equal to zero after checking that no factor cancels with the numerator. In y = 1/(x − 6), the denominator is zero when x − 6 = 0, which gives x = 6. Near this x-value, the denominator becomes very small, so the function grows without bound in magnitude; this is the behavior that defines the vertical asymptote. The numerator is 1 and cannot cancel anything. Option B comes from changing the sign incorrectly. Options C and D are horizontal lines; in fact y = 0 is the horizontal asymptote of this graph, while y = 6 is not an asymptote. Therefore option A is the unique correct answer.
