Vertical Asymptotes and Holes

Mark
< Prev
Next >

Which statement correctly identifies the vertical asymptote(s) and/or hole(s) of the rational function r(x)=x−2(x−2)2r(x)=\frac{x-2}{(x-2)^2}?

A

There is a hole at x=2x=2 because the factor cancels completely.

B

There is both a vertical asymptote and a hole at x=2x=2.

C

The function is defined at x=2x=2, so it has neither a hole nor a vertical asymptote.

D

There is a vertical asymptote at x=2x=2 because the factor x−2x-2 cancels partially (the numerator cancels one instance) leaving an uncanceled factor in the denominator.
