$$f{\left(x \right)} = \frac{x - 4}{\sqrt{x} - 2}$$
f = (x - 4)/(sqrt(x) - 2)
The graph of the function
The domain of the function
The points at which the function is not precisely defined:
$$x_{1} = 4$$
$$x_{1} = 4$$
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:
$$\frac{x - 4}{\sqrt{x} - 2} = 0$$
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:
$$\frac{x - 4}{\sqrt{x} - 2} = 0$$
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
$$\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)} = 0$$
(the derivative equals zero),
and the roots of this equation are the extrema of this function:
$$\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)} = $$
the first derivative
$$\frac{1}{\sqrt{x} - 2} - \frac{x - 4}{2 \sqrt{x} \left(\sqrt{x} - 2\right)^{2}} = 0$$
Solve this equation
Solutions are not found,
function may have no extrema
$$\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)} = 0$$
(the derivative equals zero),
and the roots of this equation are the extrema of this function:
$$\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)} = $$
the first derivative
$$\frac{1}{\sqrt{x} - 2} - \frac{x - 4}{2 \sqrt{x} \left(\sqrt{x} - 2\right)^{2}} = 0$$

Inflection points
Let's find the inflection points, we'll need to solve the equation for this
$$\frac{d^{2}}{d x^{2}} f{\left(x \right)} = 0$$
(the second derivative equals zero),
the roots of this equation will be the inflection points for the specified function graph:
$$\frac{d^{2}}{d x^{2}} f{\left(x \right)} = $$
the second derivative
$$\frac{\frac{\left(x - 4\right) \left(\frac{2}{x \left(\sqrt{x} - 2\right)} + \frac{1}{x^{\frac{3}{2}}}\right)}{4} - \frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}}{\left(\sqrt{x} - 2\right)^{2}} = 0$$
Solve this equation
Solutions are not found,
maybe, the function has no inflections
$$\frac{d^{2}}{d x^{2}} f{\left(x \right)} = 0$$
(the second derivative equals zero),

$$\frac{d^{2}}{d x^{2}} f{\left(x \right)} = $$
the second derivative
$$\frac{\frac{\left(x - 4\right) \left(\frac{2}{x \left(\sqrt{x} - 2\right)} + \frac{1}{x^{\frac{3}{2}}}\right)}{4} - \frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}}{\left(\sqrt{x} - 2\right)^{2}} = 0$$

Vertical asymptotes
Have:
$$x_{1} = 4$$
$$x_{1} = 4$$
Horizontal asymptotes
Let’s find horizontal asymptotes with help of the limits of this function at x->+oo and x->-oo
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\frac{x - 4}{\sqrt{x} - 2}\right) = \infty i$$
Let's take the limit
so,
horizontal asymptote on the left doesn’t exist
$$\lim_{x \to \infty}\left(\frac{x - 4}{\sqrt{x} - 2}\right) = \infty$$
Let's take the limit
so,
horizontal asymptote on the right doesn’t exist
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\frac{x - 4}{\sqrt{x} - 2}\right) = \infty i$$
Let's take the limit
so,
horizontal asymptote on the left doesn’t exist
$$\lim_{x \to \infty}\left(\frac{x - 4}{\sqrt{x} - 2}\right) = \infty$$
Let's take the limit
so,
horizontal asymptote on the right doesn’t exist
Inclined asymptotes
Inclined asymptote can be found by calculating the limit of (x - 4)/(sqrt(x) - 2), divided by x at x->+oo and x ->-oo
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\frac{x - 4}{x \left(\sqrt{x} - 2\right)}\right) = 0$$
Let's take the limit
so,
inclined coincides with the horizontal asymptote on the right
$$\lim_{x \to \infty}\left(\frac{x - 4}{x \left(\sqrt{x} - 2\right)}\right) = 0$$
Let's take the limit
so,
inclined coincides with the horizontal asymptote on the left
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\frac{x - 4}{x \left(\sqrt{x} - 2\right)}\right) = 0$$
Let's take the limit
so,
inclined coincides with the horizontal asymptote on the right
$$\lim_{x \to \infty}\left(\frac{x - 4}{x \left(\sqrt{x} - 2\right)}\right) = 0$$
Let's take the limit
so,
inclined coincides with the horizontal asymptote on the left
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:
$$\frac{x - 4}{\sqrt{x} - 2} = \frac{- x - 4}{\sqrt{- x} - 2}$$
- No
$$\frac{x - 4}{\sqrt{x} - 2} = - \frac{- x - 4}{\sqrt{- x} - 2}$$
- No
so, the function
not is
neither even, nor odd
So, check:
$$\frac{x - 4}{\sqrt{x} - 2} = \frac{- x - 4}{\sqrt{- x} - 2}$$
- No
$$\frac{x - 4}{\sqrt{x} - 2} = - \frac{- x - 4}{\sqrt{- x} - 2}$$
- No
so, the function
not is
neither even, nor odd
