Yes, a vertical asymptote represents a value of the independent variable (usually (x)) where a function approaches infinity or negative infinity, and the function is indeed undefined at that point. This is because the function does not have a finite value as it approaches the asymptote. Thus, the vertical asymptote indicates a discontinuity in the function, where it cannot take on a specific value.

It will have the same asymptote. One can derive a vertical asymptote from the denominator of a function. There is an asymptote at a value of x where the denominator equals 0. Therefore the 3 would go in the numerator when distributed and would have no effect as to where the vertical asymptote lies. So that would be true.

A vertical asymptote represents a value of the independent variable where the function approaches infinity or negative infinity, indicating that the function is undefined at that point. Since rational functions are defined as the ratio of two polynomials, if the denominator equals zero (which occurs at the vertical asymptote), the function cannot take on a finite value or cross that line. Therefore, the graph of a rational function cannot intersect its vertical asymptotes.
Yes, a curved line can become vertical at certain points, depending on its shape and the context. For example, in calculus, the tangent line to a curve can be vertical at points where the derivative is undefined, such as at a cusp or vertical asymptote. However, the entire curve itself remains a continuous line and does not become vertical over a segment.
Undefined
No. For example, in real numbers, the square root of negative numbers are not defined.

An undefined slope is vertical.

One way to find a vertical asymptote is to take the inverse of the given function and evaluate its limit as x tends to infinity.

It remains a vertical asymptote. Instead on going towards y = + infinity it will go towards y = - infinity and conversely.
Near a function's vertical asymptotes, the function's values can approach positive or negative infinity. This behavior occurs because vertical asymptotes represent values of the independent variable where the function is undefined, causing the outputs to increase or decrease without bound as the input approaches the asymptote. Consequently, as the graph approaches the asymptote, the function's values spike dramatically, either upwards or downwards.
