To find: the intercepts and asymptotes, and then sketch a graph of the rational function. To state the domain and range.
Answer to Problem 63E
The function has no
The vertical asymptote occurs at
The function has no horizontal asymptote.
The domain of the function is equal to
The range of the function is equal to
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Given function,
Calculation:
Consider the function,
To solve for the
Consider,
Therefore, the function has no
To solve for the
Consider,
Vertical asymptotes:
The vertical asymptote occurs at the point that makes the denominator of the function zero.
The denominator of the function is,
Find the vertical asymptotes,
Therefore, the vertical asymptote occurs at
Horizontal asymptotes:
The degree of the numerator is lesser than denominator then the function has no horizontal asymptote.
In the function the degree of the numerator is lesser than the degree of denominator.
The function has no horizontal asymptote.
Sketch the graph of the function
From the graph,
The vertical asymptote at
The domain of the function is equal to
The function has no horizontal asymptote.
The range of the function is equal to
