Answer

x-intercept=$0,1/2$ y-intercept=$0$ vertical asymptote $x=-1$ no horizontal, no slant asymptotes. End behavior $y=x^2-3x+3$

Work Step by Step

x-intercept=$0,1/2$ y-intercept=$0$ vertical asymptote $x=-1$ no horizontal, no slant asymptotes. Use synthetic division $r(x)=x^2-3x+3+\frac{-3}{x+1}$ The polynomial that has the same end behavior as the rational function can be found as $y=x^2-3x+3$
