hey robtobey, is there a way i can mathematically solve this problem using steps. i dont own a graphing calculator and im going to have to perform a similar problem like this on a test

The horizontal comes from dividing the coefficient of x in the Numerator and the Denominator respectively.

The vertical is derived by setting the Numerator to zero and solving for x.
