Full solution stays hidden until you ask for it.
1. Factor the denominator and numerator.
2. Identify noncanceled denominator zeros as vertical asymptotes.
3. Explain what happens as inputs approach that value in context.
Use the worked steps, then substitute the final answer back into the original relationship to confirm it satisfies the prompt.
