f(x) = (x+10)/(|x|+2)

How do you graph this? I know that we have to find the vertical and horizontal asymptote, and that we need to find the x and y intercepts in order to graph it but the absolute value confuses me. D: I'm not really sure what I should do with it.

If it's on a test, I would like to graph this manually though. D: Unless, you are saying mathway will give me clues on how to find out?

when you plug it in it gives you options and you can choose whether or not you want to know the intercepts the asymptotes etc. i work backwards sometimes and maybe seeing an example could help you

Okay, thanks. I'll try that.
