6. Add the original function f(x) to
y3(x) and select the square
graphing style.
7. In the Window Editor, set the
window variables to:
x= [ë10,15,10]
y= [ë100,100,10]
8. Draw the graph.
Observe that the global behavior of the f(x) function is basically
represented by the quadratic quotient y2(x). The rational expression
is basically a quadratic function as x gets very large in both the
positive and negative directions.
The lower graph is y3(x)=f(x) graphed separately using the line style.
Note: Be sure the Graph
mode is set to
Function.
