Question 4
1 mark

Find the vertical asymptote of the rational function \( f(x) = \frac{2x + 3}{x - 4} \).

Question 5
1 mark

Analyze the end behavior of the rational function \( g(x) = \frac{-3x^5 + 2x^2 - 1}{4x^3 + 5x + 7} \). Which statement correctly describes the limits as \( x \) approaches infinity and negative infinity?

Question 6

Given the polynomial \( P(x) = x^3 + kx^2 - 4x + 12 \).
(a) If the remainder when \( P(x) \) is divided by \( x - 1 \) is 6, find the value of the constant \( k \).
(b) Using the value of \( k \) found in part (a), find the remainder when \( P(x) \) is divided by \( x + 2 \).
