Find the intercepts and the vertical asymptote of

 

f(x)= (x^2−2x−3)/(x−4)

 

Enter the intercepts as points, (a,b).

 

The x-intercept that has a negative value of x is   [                ]

The x-intercept that has a positive value of x is    [                ]  

The y-intercept is    [                   ]

 

The vertical asymptote is x=   [                         ]
