7 A curve has equation \(y = \frac { ( x + 9 ) ( 3 x - 8 ) } { x ^ { 2 } - 4 }\).
- Write down the coordinates of the points where the curve crosses the axes.
- Write down the equations of the three asymptotes.
- Determine whether the curve approaches the horizontal asymptote from above or below for
(A) large positive values of \(x\),
(B) large negative values of \(x\). - Sketch the curve.
