Solution

It looks like you've uploaded a Pre-Calculus homework document. Here's a summary of the tasks it contains:

  1. Rational Functions and Transformations:

    • Identify the transformations and asymptotes for each given function.
    • Sketch the graph of each rational function.
    • Functions to analyze include:
      1. h(x)=1x+41h(x) = \frac{1}{x+4} - 1
      2. g(x)=1x+5g(x) = -\frac{1}{x} + 5
      3. k(x)=1x26k(x) = \frac{1}{x-2} - 6
      4. p(x)=1x+3p(x) = -\frac{1}{x} + 3
  2. Asymptotes and Graphing:

    • Identify the vertical and horizontal asymptotes.
    • Sketch graphs for the following functions: 5. g(x)=x+22x+6g(x) = \frac{x+2}{2x+6} 6. f(x)=3x2x24f(x) = \frac{-3x^2}{x^2-4} 7. k(x)=x+42x6k(x) = \frac{x+4}{-2x-6} 8. f(x)=6x523xf(x) = \frac{6x-5}{2-3x}

Would you like assistance solving these functions or understanding the transformations and asymptotes? Let me know if you'd prefer detailed explanations for any specific part.

Here are 5 possible follow-up questions:

  1. How do you find the vertical and horizontal asymptotes of a rational function?
  2. Can you explain how transformations affect the graph of rational functions?
  3. What methods can you use to sketch a rational function graph accurately?
  4. How do you handle functions with more complex numerators and denominators like in #6?
  5. What are the steps to determine the domain of these functions?

Tip: For rational functions, vertical asymptotes occur where the denominator equals zero, and horizontal asymptotes are often found by analyzing end behavior based on degrees of the numerator and denominator.
