\

Find the vertical asymptotes.

\

Find the vertical asymptotes by equating denominator to zero.

\

$\"\"$ $\"\"$

\

The function has vertical asymptotes at $\"\"$ .

\

Find the horizantal asymptote.

\

To find horizontal asymptote, first find the degree of the numerator and degree of the denominator.

\

Degree of the numerator $\"\"$ and degree of the denominator $\"\"$ .

\

There is no horizantal asymptote since the degree of the numerator is greater than the degree of the denominator.

\

Since the numerator is $\"\"$ or more greater than the denominator, there is no oblique asymptote.

\

\

The function is $\"\"$ .

\

Find the domain.

\

The function is $\"\"$ .

\

The domain of a function is the set of all real numbers which makes the function mathematically correct.

\

Denominator of the function should not be $\"\"$ .

\

$\"\"$

\

Thus, the function is continuous for all real numbers except $\"\"$ .

\

Therefore, domain of the function is $\"\"$ .
