Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the function and its properties

The given function is \( f(x) = \log_6(x) \). This is a logarithmic function with base 6. Logarithmic functions have a vertical asymptote at \( x = 0 \) and pass through the point \( (1, 0) \).

Step 2: Graph the function

To graph \( f(x) = \log_6(x) \):

  1. Identify the vertical asymptote at \( x = 0 \).
  2. Plot key points such as \( (1, 0) \) and \( (6, 1) \) because \( \log_6(1) = 0 \) and \( \log_6(6) = 1 \).
  3. Draw the curve passing through these points, approaching the vertical asymptote as \( x \) approaches 0 from the right.
Step 3: Determine the equation of the asymptote

The vertical asymptote of the function \( f(x) = \log_6(x) \) is at \( x = 0 \).

Final Answer

  • Graph the function: The graph of \( f(x) = \log_6(x) \) has a vertical asymptote at \( x = 0 \) and passes through points like \( (1, 0) \) and \( (6, 1) \).
  • Equation of the asymptote: \( x = 0 \)
