please help me find the intercepts and test for symmetry for : y=(-9x/x^2+9)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y-int are found by setting x to zero and x-int are found by setting y to zero

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes but its in a form that is in a fraction and I am confused

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can probably figure it out if its written like 4x^2+25y^2=100, but its written differently

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You would multiply the bottom out when setting y to zero, so you would have -9x=0 which means that when y is 0, then x doesn't exist, so you have a asymptote at that point.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhhh thanks , I am not fully understanding this one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wait is the 9 in the denominator or numerator? I was assuming 9 was not in the numerator.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in the numerator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait there is a 9 in the numerator and denomiator
