The solution

You have entered [src]
f(x) = x - 3/4 - x
$$f{\left(x \right)} = - x + \left(x - \frac{3}{4}\right)$$
f = -x + x - 3/4
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:
$$- x + \left(x - \frac{3}{4}\right) = 0$$
Solve this equation
Solution is not found,
it's possible that the graph doesn't intersect the axis X
The points of intersection with the Y axis coordinate
The graph crosses Y axis when x equals 0:
substitute x = 0 to x - 3/4 - x.
$$- \frac{3}{4} - 0$$
The result:
$$f{\left(0 \right)} = - \frac{3}{4}$$
The point:
(0, -3/4)
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
$$0 = 0$$
Solve this equation
Solutions are not found,
function may have no extrema
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
$$0 = 0$$
Solve this equation
Solutions are not found,
maybe, the function has no inflections
Horizontal asymptotes
Let’s find horizontal asymptotes with help of the limits of this function at x->+oo and x->-oo
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(- x + \left(x - \frac{3}{4}\right)\right) = - \frac{3}{4}$$
Let's take the limit
so,
equation of the horizontal asymptote on the left:
$$y = - \frac{3}{4}$$
$$\lim_{x \to \infty}\left(- x + \left(x - \frac{3}{4}\right)\right) = - \frac{3}{4}$$
Let's take the limit
so,
equation of the horizontal asymptote on the right:
$$y = - \frac{3}{4}$$
Inclined asymptotes
Inclined asymptote can be found by calculating the limit of x - 3/4 - x, divided by x at x->+oo and x ->-oo
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\frac{- x + \left(x - \frac{3}{4}\right)}{x}\right) = 0$$
Let's take the limit
so,
inclined coincides with the horizontal asymptote on the right
$$\lim_{x \to \infty}\left(\frac{- x + \left(x - \frac{3}{4}\right)}{x}\right) = 0$$
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:
$$- x + \left(x - \frac{3}{4}\right) = - \frac{3}{4}$$
- No
$$- x + \left(x - \frac{3}{4}\right) = \frac{3}{4}$$
- No
so, the function
not is
neither even, nor odd
