Let f(x) = 
8
x2 − 4x
. Then its first derivative is f'(x) = 
32 − 16x
(x2 − 4x)2
.

a. Find the equation of the horizontal asymptote of the graph of f. (If there is none, enter "DNE".)
x = 
 
 
 

 

b. Find the locations (x-values) of all vertical asymptotes of the graph of f. If there are more than one, enter them as a comma-separated list. If there are none, enter "DNE".
 
 
 

 

c. Find the critical number(s) of f. If there are more than one, enter them as a comma-separated list. If there are none, enter "DNE".
