Determine a power-family rule from features and points

Question 1 of 8

No calculator

Use the stated features and exact points to form the power-family rule

The branches lie on opposite sides of the horizontal asymptote

The vertical asymptote is \(x=-4\) and the horizontal asymptote is \(y=2\)

\[P_1=(-2,\frac{3}{2}),\qquad P_2=(-7,\frac{7}{3})\]

The first point determines the scale. The second point is supplied for verification

(a)3 marks

Record the exact parameter values in the normal form

(b)1 mark

Determine the rule in normal form from the defining data and exact points

(c)1 mark

Verify the rule at the unused exact point condition

Format: Give an exact fraction
