how would i graph f(x)= (x+6)(2x^2-x-6)/x^2+4x-12? can you give me the steps to graphing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

factor f(x) and cancel those common factors but take care of your domain.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You should get a really simple equation with something no in your domain then it is done.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i common factored and got (2x+3)(x+1)/(x-2)... what do i do no i know x cannot equal 2 or -6??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

where your x+1 came from?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

factorize it again, double check it plz.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry x-4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhhh x-2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

srry i get it now ... can you facotr with division though??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then what you finally got and what is the domain of your new function?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

** graph i mean

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You have to figure out the domain then do the graph.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

domain: 2x+3... x cannot = 2 and -6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So draw a line of 2x+3 without x=2 and x=-6 points

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how... do i just find vertex and zeros???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Could you draw a line y=2x+3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got it thanks
