I can't find the zeros..

OpenStudy (jh99):

For the denominator... I can't solve this. I need to find the VA, HA, intercepts, and any removable discontinuities.

OpenStudy (mww):

The denominator does not have rational roots so you'll need to estimate it. You can use half interval method to find a close root and approximate a better one.

OpenStudy (jh99):

then how would I find the asymptotes and the intercepts?

OpenStudy (mww):

Well vertical asymptote occurs whenever f(x) -> infinity or -infinity (i.e. denominator is 0) However, note that the root of the denominator is the vertical asymptote only if when you substitute this into the numerator, the numerator is not 0 as well. Otherwise you get 0/0 case which corresponds to a removable discontinuity. Intercepts: well let x = 0 for y intercept and y = 0 for x intercept. The roots of the numerator are your x intercepts.
