$$f{\left(x \right)} = x \left(e^{x}\right)^{- \frac{1}{x}}$$

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:
$$x \left(e^{x}\right)^{- \frac{1}{x}} = 0$$
Solve this equation
The points of intersection with the axis X:

$$x_{1} = 0$$
Numerical solution
$$x_{1} = 0$$
so we need to solve the equation:
$$x \left(e^{x}\right)^{- \frac{1}{x}} = 0$$

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
$$\left(e^{x}\right)^{- \frac{1}{x}} = 0$$

$$x_{1} = 0$$
$$x_{1} = 0$$
Horizontal asymptotes
Let’s find horizontal asymptotes with help of the limits of this function at x->+oo and x->-oo
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(x \left(e^{x}\right)^{- \frac{1}{x}}\right) = -\infty$$
Let's take the limit
so,
horizontal asymptote on the left doesn’t exist
$$\lim_{x \to \infty}\left(x \left(e^{x}\right)^{- \frac{1}{x}}\right) = \infty$$

so,
horizontal asymptote on the right doesn’t exist
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(x \left(e^{x}\right)^{- \frac{1}{x}}\right) = -\infty$$

horizontal asymptote on the right doesn’t exist
Inclined asymptotes
Inclined asymptote can be found by calculating the limit of x*exp(x)^(-1/x), divided by x at x->+oo and x ->-oo
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty} e^{-1} = e^{-1}$$
Let's take the limit
so,
inclined asymptote equation on the left:
$$y = \frac{x}{e}$$
$$\lim_{x \to \infty} e^{-1} = e^{-1}$$
Let's take the limit
so,
inclined asymptote equation on the right:
$$y = \frac{x}{e}$$
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty} e^{-1} = e^{-1}$$
Let's take the limit

so,
inclined asymptote equation on the right:
$$y = \frac{x}{e}$$
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:
$$x \left(e^{x}\right)^{- \frac{1}{x}} = - \frac{x}{e}$$
- No
$$x \left(e^{x}\right)^{- \frac{1}{x}} = \frac{x}{e}$$
- No
so, the function
not is
neither even, nor odd
So, check:
$$x \left(e^{x}\right)^{- \frac{1}{x}} = - \frac{x}{e}$$
- No

- No
so, the function
not is
neither even, nor odd
