The removable discontinuity at x=2 means there are factors of (x-2) in both numerator and denominator.

The non-removable discontinuity at x=3 means there is a factor of (x-3) in the denominator and not in the numerator.

Other than that the rational function can have any other factors you want. But basically the function is





The removable discontinuity won't show up on the graph created by the graphing utility on this site; it will show up (as a hole in the graph) on a good graphing calculator like the TI-83.
