ok that's fine, I'm going to post what I got

anonymous · Answer

okay can you graph it, and make the graph look like the one i posted?

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

ok here it is (see attached)

the vertical asymptote is x = - 1

the horizontal asymptote is y = 0

There are NO x-intercepts

The y-intercept is (0,1)

anonymous · Answer

alright what is the domain, and the range?

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

domain: set of all real numbers BUT x cannot equal -1

range: set of all real numbers BUT y cannot equal 0


Notice how the domain is based off of what the vertical asymptote is

Notice how the range is based off of what the horizontal asymptote is
