\"\"

\

The function is \"\".

\

Step 1: Find the zeros.

\

\"\"              (Set \"\")

\

\"\"       (Take square root on each side)

\

\"\"                   (Cancel common terms)

\

\"\"                     (Simplify)

\

There is zero at \"\".

\

\"\"

\

Step 2: Find the asymptotes.

\

\"\"                   (Set \"\")

\

\"\"       (Add \"\" to each side)

\

\"\"                         (Apply additive inverse property: \"\")

\

There is a vertical asymptote at \"\".

\

The degree of the numerator is greater than the degree of the denominator.

\

Thus, there is no horizontal asymptote.

\

The difference between the degree of the numerator and the degree of the denominator is \"\".

\

Thus there is an oblique asymptote.

\

\"\"

\

The equation of the asymptote is the quotient excluding any remainder.

\

Thus, the oblique asymptote is the line \"\".

\

\"\"

\

Step 3: Draw the asymptotes:

\

Make a table of values.
