Okay, first thing i'll find then is the x intercept.
00:05
And to do that, let y equal zero.
00:11
Y is zero, that's where i touch the x -axis.
00:14
If y is zero, then x plus two must be zero on top there, which means x has to be minus two.
00:27
So the first one then is minus two, zero.
00:31
That's your x intercept.
00:37
Next the y intercept, to find that, that x equals 0.
00:48
And you'll see where it cuts the y axis.
00:51
If x is 0, what i get is that y will be 0 plus 2 is 2, 0 plus 5 is 5, and 0 minus 1 is negative 1.
01:06
And that becomes minus 2 over 5, which means then the coordinates will be 0 or x, and minus 2 over 5 for 1.
01:24
Now next we'll do vertical asymptotes, and those always occur where the bottom is 0.
01:36
In the words, that is 0 or that is 0, i get vertical asymptotes.
01:44
So the answer is x is negative 5 or x is 1...
