Question 1128113: Write an equation for a rational function with the given characteristics:
Vertical asymptotes at x = −3 and x = 6, x-intercepts at (−4, 0) and (1, 0),horizontal asymptote at y = −2
*My previous answers have been -2 x^2-3x-4/x^2+9x+18. and -2 x^2-3x-4/x^2+3x-18.
Can someone explain where I am going wrong? Thank you.

Since has a vertical is at , and then the denominator of the rational function contains the term and .
Function has the form.


since has a horizontal asymptote , x-intercepts and , contains
