Follow steps 1 through 7 to analyze the graph of each function.
[ Step 1: Factor the numerator and denominator of R. Find the domain of the rational function.
Step 2: Write R in the lowest terms.
Step 3: Find and plot the intercepts of the graph. Use multiplicity to determine the behavior of the graph of R at each x-intercept.
Step 4: Find the vertical asymptotes. Graph each vertical asymptote using a dashed line. Determine the behavior of the graph of R on either side of each vertical asymptote
Step 5: Find the horizontal or oblique asymptote, if one exists. Find points, if any, at which the graph of R intersects this asymptote. Graph the asymptote using a dashed line. Plot any points at which the graph of R intersects the asymptote.
Step 6: Use zeros of the numerator and denominator of R to divide the x-axis into intervals. Determine where the graph of R is above or below the x-axis by choosing a number in each interval and evaluating R there. Plot the points found.
Step 7: use the results obtained in Steps 1 through 6 to graph R.]
1. R(x) = x/((x-1)(x+2))
2. R(x) =(3x+3)/(2x+4)
3. R(x) =6/(x2-x-6)
4. R(x) = x2/(x2+x-6)
5. R(x) =3x/(x2-1)
6. R(x) =-4/((x+1)(x2-9)
7. R(x) =(x2-x-12)/(x+5)
8. R(x) =(x2+3x-10)/(x2+8x+15)
9. R(x) = (x2+x-30)/(x+6)
