Graphing y = 4/(x^3)
The solution
The graph of the function
The domain of the function
The points at which the function is not precisely defined:
$$x_{1} = 0$$
$$x_{1} = 0$$
The points of intersection with the X-axis coordinate
Graph of the function intersects the axis X at f = 0
so we need to solve the equation:
$$\frac{4}{x^{3}} = 0$$
Solve this equation
Solution is not found,
it's possible that the graph doesn't intersect the axis X
so we need to solve the equation:
$$\frac{4}{x^{3}} = 0$$
Solve this equation
Solution is not found,
it's possible that the graph doesn't intersect the axis X
Extrema of the function
In order to find the extrema, we need to solve the equation
$$\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)} = 0$$

and the roots of this equation are the extrema of this function:
$$\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)} = $$
the first derivative
$$- \frac{12}{x^{4}} = 0$$
Solve this equation

Horizontal asymptotes
Let’s find horizontal asymptotes with help of the limits of this function at x->+oo and x->-oo

Inclined asymptotes
Inclined asymptote can be found by calculating the limit of 4/x^3, divided by x at x->+oo and x ->-oo
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\frac{4}{x x^{3}}\right) = 0$$

Even and odd functions
Let's check, whether the function even or odd by using relations f = f(-x) и f = -f(-x).
So, check:
$$\frac{4}{x^{3}} = - \frac{4}{x^{3}}$$
- No
$$\frac{4}{x^{3}} = \frac{4}{x^{3}}$$
- No
so, the function
not is
neither even, nor odd
So, check:
$$\frac{4}{x^{3}} = - \frac{4}{x^{3}}$$
- No
$$\frac{4}{x^{3}} = \frac{4}{x^{3}}$$
- No
so, the function
not is
neither even, nor odd
