Horizontal asymptotes (Section 3.5)Infinite limits at infinity (Section 3.5)
Tools/Concepts useful in Sketching a Graph[p202]
2
1. Determine the domain and range of the function.2. Determine the intercepts, asymptotes, and symmetry of the graph.3. Locate the xvalues for which f '(x) and f "(x) are either zero or do not exist. Use the results to determine relative extrema and points of inflection.
NOTE: In these guidelines, note the importance of algebra (as well as calculus) for solving the equations f (x) = 0 , f '(x) = 0 , and f "(x) = 0 .
Guidelines for Analyzing the Graph of a Function [p 202]
Polynomial Functions
Rational Functions f (x) = p(x)h(x)
if the degree of p(x) exceeds the degree of h(x) by one, oblique (slant) asymptote (after long division)
Radical Functions f (x) = xn
Trigonometric Functionsomit
