Answer

We can see a sketch of one possible graph below.

Work Step by Step

$f'(x) \gt 0$ for all $x \neq 1$ The graph is increasing on the intervals $(-\infty, 1)\cup (1, \infty)$ There is a vertical asymptote at $x = 1$ $f''(x) \gt 0$ if $x \lt 1$ or $x \gt 3$ The graph is concave up on these intervals. $f''(x) \lt 0$ if $1 \lt x \lt 3$ The graph is concave down on this interval.
