The given function is


f(x)=(1)/(x+3)

At x = -3, the function is undefined. This implies that a discontinuity exists at that point where x = -3. This is why we conclude that there is a vertical asymptote at x = -3.

Therefore, the correct answer is there is a vertical asymptote at x = -3 since the function is discontinuous at that point.
