The function is .

The denominator of f is zero when .

So, the domain of f is all real numbers except .

The domain of f is all real numbers except .

The function is .

To find the y - intercept then x = 0.

                        (Write the original function)

         (Substitute x = 0)

The y - intercept is .

The y - intercept is .

The function is .

The degree of the numerator is less than the degree of denominator, so the line y = 0 is a horizontal asymptote.

To find any vertical asymptotes, set the denominator equal to zero and solve the resulting equation for x.

                  (Set denominator equal to zero)

                        (Simplify)

The line is a vertical asymptotes of f(x) and the line is a horizontal asymptotes of f(x).
