A horizontal asymptote at $y = 4$ and a vertical asymptote at $x = 0$

A vertical asymptote at $x = 4$ and horizontal asymptote $y = 0$

An $x$-intercept at $4$, where the curve crosses the horizontal axis

$p(x)$ must be a constant function everywhere

$p(x)$ has no other zeros apart from $x = 2$

$p$ must have degree exactly equal to $1$

$x - 2$ is a factor of $p(x)$

Reflection in the $x$-axis, translate left $3$, translate up $4$

Translate right $3$ units, then translate up $4$ units, then reflect in the $y$-axis

Reflect in the $y$-axis, then translate up $4$ units

Reflect in the $x$-axis only, with no translations applied

I will sketch the graph straight away by plotting a handful of points from a table of values and joining them up freehand, since a curve through enough points will always show every feature I need to mark.

Identify the parent function and list the transformations in order: reflection, dilation, translation. Then mark key features (intercepts, asymptotes, stationary points) before sketching.

Functions are mappings, so I will simply describe in words what the rule does to each input value.

Graphs are visual, so a neat picture on its own should be enough to earn the available marks.
