The graph of the function
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:

Horizontal asymptotes
Let’s find horizontal asymptotes with help of the limits of this function at x->+oo and x->-oo
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty} 4^{\frac{\log{\left(x - 2 \right)}}{\log{\left(4 \right)}}} = -\infty$$
Let's take the limit
so,
horizontal asymptote on the left doesn’t exist
$$\lim_{x \to \infty} 4^{\frac{\log{\left(x - 2 \right)}}{\log{\left(4 \right)}}} = \infty$$
Let's take the limit
so,
horizontal asymptote on the right doesn’t exist
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty} 4^{\frac{\log{\left(x - 2 \right)}}{\log{\left(4 \right)}}} = -\infty$$
Let's take the limit

Inclined asymptotes
Inclined asymptote can be found by calculating the limit of 4^(log(x - 2)/log(4)), divided by x at x->+oo and x ->-oo
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\frac{x - 2}{x}\right) = 1$$
Let's take the limit
so,
inclined asymptote equation on the left:
$$y = x$$
$$\lim_{x \to \infty}\left(\frac{x - 2}{x}\right) = 1$$

inclined asymptote equation on the right:
$$y = x$$
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\frac{x - 2}{x}\right) = 1$$
Let's take the limit

$$y = x$$
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:
$$4^{\frac{\log{\left(x - 2 \right)}}{\log{\left(4 \right)}}} = - x - 2$$
- No
$$4^{\frac{\log{\left(x - 2 \right)}}{\log{\left(4 \right)}}} = x + 2$$
- No
so, the function
not is
neither even, nor odd
So, check:
$$4^{\frac{\log{\left(x - 2 \right)}}{\log{\left(4 \right)}}} = - x - 2$$
- No
$$4^{\frac{\log{\left(x - 2 \right)}}{\log{\left(4 \right)}}} = x + 2$$
- No
so, the function
not is
neither even, nor odd
