Answer 1

Answer:

  f(x) = (3x -12)/(x² -7x +12)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a rational function can be written from the clues offered by the horizontal and vertical asymptotes, the y-intercept, and any "holes" in the function graph. Here, those clues are ...

• horizontal asymptote: y = 0
• vertical asymptote: x = 3
• hole: (x, y) = (4, 3)
• y-intercept: (0, -1)

__

The horizontal asymptote at y=0 tells you the denominator is of higher degree than the numerator. The vertical asymptote at x=3 tells you (x-3) is a factor of the denominator. The hole at x=4 tells you there is a factor of (x-4) in both numerator and denominator.

At this point, the function is tentatively ...

  $f(x)=a\dfrac{x-4}{(x-3)(x-4)}$

Evaluating this at the y-intercept, x=0, gives ...

  f(0) = -1 = a/(0 -3) = -a/3

  a = 3 . . . . . multiply by -3

Then our rational function, consistent with all of the features of the graph, is ...

  $f(x)=\dfrac{3(x -4)}{(x -3)(x -4)}\\\\\boxed{f(x)=\dfrac{3x-12}{x^2-7x+12}}$
