Question #N614
The graph of $y = \frac{1}{x - 2}$ has a vertical asymptote at $x = k$. What is the value of $k$?
A. -2
B. 2
C. 0
D. 1
Correct Answer is: B
A vertical asymptote occurs where the denominator of a rational function equals zero. In this case, the denominator is $x - 2$, and it equals zero when $x = 2$. Therefore, the value of $k$ is 2.
