Algebra.Com's Answer #70447 by jim_thompson5910(35256)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! By looking at the graph, I'm assuming the curve goes through y=1 (it's hard to tell)\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let's find f(-2):\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Find x=-2 and find the corresponding y value on the curve. However, since there is an asymptote at x=-2, the value f(-2) doesn't exist\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------------------------------------------\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let's find f(-1):\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Find x=-1 and find the corresponding y value on the curve.
