The function .

(a) Complete the table.

(b)

Observe part (a): As approaches from the right, the value of approaches greater and greater.

As approaches from the left, the value of becomes more and more negative. 

(c)

Graph the function :

Observe the graph: As approaches from the left of the graph, it decreases without bound. As approaches from the right, the graph increase without bound.

(d)

As the value of becomes increasingly large, or when , the denominator of the fraction will also become increasingly large. This creates smaller fractions that will continue to
