State the power and constant of variation for the function, and then analyze it.f(x) = -

Question

What will be an ideal response?

Answer 1

Power is -2; constant of variation is -4; Domain: (-?, 0) ? (0, ?); Range: (-?, 0); Continuous on its domain. Discontinuous at x = 0; Decreasing on (-?, 0). Increasing on (0, ?); Symmetric with respect to the y-axis (an even function); Bounded above, but not below; No local extrema; Horizontal asymptote: y = 0. Vertical asymptote: x = 0;
End behavior:  = 0 and  = 0.
