f(x) = (1/64)(x-3)^2(x+4)^3
------
If x = 0, y = (1/64)(9)(64) = 9;; So, plot (0,9)
-----
Because (x-3) is squared, the graph touches but does not pass thru (3,0)
-----
Because (x+4) is raised to an odd poser, the graph passes thru (-4,0)
-----
Because the highest power is x^2*x^3 = x^5, the graph goes to -oo as
x goes to -oo and the graph goes to +oo as x goes to +oo.
