Vertical asymptote of f(x) = 3x-18 over 2x + 1

We know that the formula to get the equation of a rational function is:

y = a * (factors of x intercepts) / (factor of vertical asymptote)

We are given the equation:

y = (3x - 18) / (2x + 1)

from the formula, we know that the value in the denominator is the factor of the vertical asymptote

So, we can write that:

2x + 1 = 0              [where x is the vertical asymptote]

x = -1/2

Therefore, the vertical asymptote of the given equation is -1/2
