Answer:
- asymptotes: x = -4, x = 4
- zeros: x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertical asymptotes of the rational expression are the places where the denominator is zero:
x^2 -16 = 0
(x -4)(x +4) = 0 . . . . . true for x=4, x=-4
x = 4, x = -4 are the equations of the vertical asymptotes
__
The zeros of a rational expression are the places where the numerator is zero:
4x = 0
x = 0 . . . . . . divide by 4

Well you are given the roots.
if we have 3 it would.have to be x^3. So something like:
y = ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d
this could.also be written:
y = (x + a) (x + b) (x + c)
when you are able to write it like this, we know that the opposite of a, b, and c are roots. this is because if we can make any of the insides of the 3 parenthesis equal 0 then y = 0 and that x.is a root. Well if we know the 3 roots that x will be then we just have to figure out the a, b, and c. So let's plug our roots in.
y = (-1 + a) (-5 + b) (-3 + c)
now we have to make each parenthesis equal 0 to find what a, b, and c should be. It is obvious a = 1 to make.that one zero and b = 5 and c = 3. So we know a, b, and c. now let's plug.those into our first equation.
y = (x + 1) (x + 5) (x + 3)
this is your equation. You can multiply out if necessary
YOU CANNOT ADD OR SUBTRACT FRACTIONS WITH DIFFERENT DENOMINATORS!! You need to find the LCD (Lowest Common Denominator) for 6 and 2 with is 6!!
