Solution
To answer each part, I’ll outline what is generally involved in determining these characteristics from a graph. If you can upload the graph image, I can provide a detailed, precise response based on the specific function shown. Here’s a general approach:
Steps to Solve:
-
Domain and Range:
- Domain is the set of all -values for which the function is defined. On a graph, it is determined by the leftmost and rightmost points of the curve, as well as any gaps or vertical asymptotes.
- Range is the set of all -values the function attains. It is determined by the lowest and highest points the graph reaches and any horizontal asymptotes.
-
Intercepts:
- -intercepts occur where the function crosses the -axis (i.e., where ).
- -intercepts occur where the function crosses the -axis (i.e., where ).
-
Horizontal Asymptotes:
- Look for any horizontal lines the graph approaches as or .
-
Vertical Asymptotes:
- Look for any vertical lines the graph approaches but never crosses. Vertical asymptotes typically occur where the function is undefined due to division by zero.
-
Oblique Asymptotes:
- If the function does not have a horizontal asymptote and instead approaches a slanted line as or , it may have an oblique asymptote.

Tip: For rational functions, vertical asymptotes often occur where the denominator is zero (if those points do not cancel with the numerator).
