SV#2: Unit G Concepts 1-7 - Finding Key Parts and Graphing Rational Functions

To watch my video, click HERE.

This video goes over Unit G Concepts 1-7, which is finding all parts of a rational function. My function is f(x)= (x^3-x^2-20x)/(x^2-3x-10). This is a slant asymptote.  You will also need to find the vertical asymptote, holes, domain (with interval notation), and y-intercept. After doing so, graph it!

You may want to look out for what you plug your zeroes into (Yes, I messed up on the x-intercepts, but I fixed it!) It may be confusing knowing whether you plug into the x or y. Just remember Mrs. Kirch's chants! Also, make sure you trace on your calculator correctly. It's an approximation, but you still want your graph to look correct.
