Question

decide whether the following statement is true or false.
the graph of a rational function may intersect a vertical asymptote.
choose the correct answer below.
false
true

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

A vertical asymptote of a rational function occurs at an \(x\)-value that makes the denominator zero (while the numerator is non-zero at that point). By definition, the function is undefined at this \(x\)-value, so its graph cannot cross or intersect a vertical asymptote.

Answer:

False
