I need help with this!!

Does anyone know how to solve this problem using the FHRATEY method?


F: Factor

Factor numerator and denominator. Cross out any that are the same in the numerator and denominator.


H: Holes

Make sure to plug them in to find the y value.


R: Roots

Make numerator equal to zero and solve


A: Vertical Asymptote

Make denominator equal zero


T: Togetherness

Only for denominator, even exponent means together, odd exponent is apart

E: End Behavior


If dN > dD of the numerator, the HA is zero.

If dN = dD then HA = lN/lD (leading coefficients)


Y: Y Intercepts

Make all x's equal zero and solve.



The problem is this f(x)= 2x-1/x^2

First compare your function to the rules as listed to see how many of them actually apply. The numerator does not need factoring. For example you know the denominator cannot be zero so that is a barrier for you. With that since you have x in the denominator and cannot set it equal to zero do you have a y intercept. You can graph your function at Desmos.com to examine the end behavoir. Give that a try.
