Verified Answer :

You'd find the vertical asymptotes by seeing where the denominator equals zero; you can do so by factoring the denominator.
In this case, you can factor the denominator into (x+3)(x+2), so if you set each of those equal to zero you can find the equations of the vertical asymptotes (x=-3 and x=-2).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

The given rational function is :

\(f(x)=\frac{2x+8}{x^2+5x+6}\)

For finding the vertical asymptotes of a rational function,  we must set the denominator equal to zero.

So, equaling denominator to zero :

\(x^2 +5x+6 = 0\)

factoring

\((x+3)(x+2)=0\)

This will give two values of x

\(x=-3, x=-2\)    

So, these two are vertical asymptotes   :   Answer

Hope it will help :)
