fully factorable to


Performing polynomial division of the expression in the originally given form, the quotient will be , giving a slant asymptote of . Vertical asymtpote is at becasue the denominator must not be zero (the denominator of the given expression).

Two zeros occur: x=-4, and x=3 are the zeros of the function.

Critical points are x at -4, -2, and 3. These are the intervals along the horizontal axis. ...




What you want to do is test any x value in each interval and find if the function is positive or negative. I omit that part of the analysis, but this is the graph:
