The graph you've provided represents a rational function with vertical asymptotes and horizontal asymptotes. From the graph, we can observe the following features:

1. The graph has two vertical asymptotes, indicating that the function becomes unbounded (either positively or negatively) at those points. This suggests that the denominator of the function is zero at these points.

2. There is a horizontal asymptote at y = 0, meaning that as x approaches either positive or negative infinity, the function approaches y = 0.

Given these features, we might be dealing with a rational function of the form:

\[
f(x) = \frac{1}{x^2}
\]

This form would explain the graph's behavior: the vertical asymptotes at x = 0 and the horizontal asymptote at y = 0.

Would you like me to provide a more detailed analysis of this function or discuss any related concepts further?

Here are some questions that may help expand on the topic:
1. What are the characteristics of rational functions with vertical asymptotes?
2. How do you determine the equation of a rational function given its graph?
3. How do horizontal asymptotes help analyze the end behavior of rational functions?
4. What are the differences between vertical and horizontal asymptotes?
5. How can you use limits to better understand asymptotic behavior?

Tip: When graphing rational functions, always look for points where the denominator equals zero for vertical asymptotes and analyze the degree of the numerator and denominator to determine horizontal asymptotes.

Explore the detailed graph analysis of a rational function with vertical asymptotes at x = 0 and a horizontal asymptote at y = 0. Understand how asymptotes and limits determine the behavior of the function. Suitable for students in Grades 10-12.
