For possible vetival asymptotes, we set the denominator equal to zero.

− 32
x
+ 156 = 0(
x
− 6)(
x
− 26) = 0
x
=
6 or
x
= 26
So
x
=
6 and
x
= 26
are possible vertical asymptotes.
Let us check for
x
= 6
lim
x

y
=
lim
x

(
x

x

=
lim
x
→ 6
x
− 12
x
− 26
=

−20
So
x
= 6
is not a vertical asymptote.
Now let us check for
x

lim
x

y

−
x
− 12
x
− 26

because here
x

Thus
x

is a vertical asymptote.
Alternatively, we can check
lim
x

y
=
lim
x

(

(

x

x

because here
x

Thus
x

So x=\frac{1}{48}\ln\left(\frac{9}{16}\right) is a vertical asymptote.
Alternatively, we can check the left hand limit.
\displaystyle \lim_{x\rightarrow \frac{1}{48}\ln\left(\frac{9}{16}\right)^-} y = \displaystyle \lim_{x\rightarrow \frac{1}
{48}\ln\left(\frac{9}{16}\right)^-}\frac{100 e^{25 x}+31 e^{-23 x}}{16 e^{25 x}-9 e^{-23 x}} = - \infty
So x=\frac{1}{48}\ln\left(\frac{9}{16}\right) is a vertical asymptote.

Feedback:
The function is a piecewise function and it is continuous for x< 8 and x> 8 .
For f to be continuous on \mathbb{R} , it must also be continuous at x=8. So we must have
\displaystyle \lim_{x\rightarrow 8^-} f(x)= \lim_{x\rightarrow 8^+} f(x) = f(8) \qquad \qquad (1)
We calculate these values
\begin{align*} \lim_{x\rightarrow 8^-}\ c +d\left(\frac{x^2-64}{x-8}\right)&=c +d \lim_{x\rightarrow 8^-} \left(\frac{(x-8)(x+8)}
{x-8}\right)\\ &=c +d \lim_{x\rightarrow 8^-} (x+8)=c+16 d \end{align*}
\displaystyle \lim_{x\rightarrow 8^+}\ 13 c (x-8)^{38}\cos\left(\frac{3}{x-8}\right) +8=13 c \lim_{x\rightarrow 8^+}\ (x-
8)^{38}\cos\left(\frac{3}{x-8}\right) +8
We know that
-1\le \cos\left(\frac{3}{x-8}\right)\le1
-(x-8)^{38}\le (x-8)^{38} \cos\left(\frac{3}{x-8}\right)\le (x-8)^{38}
Now \displaystyle\lim_{x\rightarrow 8^+} -(x-8)^{38}=0 and \displaystyle\lim_{x\rightarrow 8^+} (x-8)^{38}=0
So by the squeeze theorem
\displaystyle \lim_{x\rightarrow 8^+}\ (x-8)^{38}\cos\left(\frac{3}{x-8}\right)=0
Therefore \displaystyle \lim_{x\rightarrow 8^+}\ 13 c (x-8)^{38}\cos\left(\frac{3}{x-8}\right) +8=13 c \lim_{x\rightarrow
8^+}\ (x-8)^{38}\cos\left(\frac{3}{x-8}\right) +8=8
And the value of the function at 8 is
f(8)=8 c+d
Substituting these values in equation (1) we obtain
c+16 d=8=8 c+d
So we have to solve the system of equations
c+16 d=8
8 c+d=8
Solving the above system we get
c=\frac{120}{127}
d=\frac{56}{127}

Let f(x)=x^{35}+57 x -1
f(x) is continuous on \mathbb{R} because it is a polynomial.
f(-37) \ \text{and} \ f(3) have opposite signs and f(x) is continuous on [-37,3], so by the IVT the equation has a real
root in the interval (-37,3).
f(-48) \ \text{and} \ f(38) have opposite signs and f(x) is continuous on [-48,38] , so by the IVT the equation has a real
root in the interval (-48,38) .
