A curve has equation
48
y = (x+3)(x - 5)
(a) Find the equations of the asymptotes and the coordinates where the curve
crosses the y - axis.
(b) You are given there is a stationary value at x = 1.
Without using calculus, show that this stationary value is a maximum.
(c) Sketch the curve. This must not be done on graph paper.
On your sketch show clearly the asymptotes. Show also the coordinates of
the maximum and where the curve crosses the y - axis.
