Select any values that you like from the given intervals. Substitute each one, one-by-one, into the given function. Calculate the value of the function, which is to say, the value of .

So, do it 7 times, once for each of the specified input values. The points to plot will be the ordered pairs formed by the input value as the first coordinate and the resulting value of the function as the second coordinate.

The asymptote of is , so the asymptote of must be such that . So just set the function contained in the log argument equal to zero and solve for . The resulting statement will be the equation of the asymptote.

The domain is related to finding the asymptote. In fact, once you have written the equation for the asymptote, just replace the equals sign with a greater than (>) sign and you have an expression for the domain. The range is all real numbers.
