Math Problem Statement
can you give me a problem of a function graphing so that i can practice it graphing my own
Solution
Sure! Here's a problem you can try for graphing a function:
Problem: Graph the following function and identify key features such as intercepts, asymptotes (if any), and behavior as and .
Instructions:
- Determine the domain of the function.
- Identify vertical asymptotes by finding the values of that make the denominator zero.
- Find the horizontal asymptote by analyzing the degrees of the numerator and denominator.
- Calculate the - and -intercepts.
- Sketch the graph of the function based on the above findings.
