Practise rational-curve features

Sketch the graph of the following curves, indicating clearly axial intercept(s), asymptote(s) and stationary point(s), if any:

(i) y=13−xy=\dfrac1{3-x}.

(ii) y=2x+1x−2y=\dfrac{2x+1}{x-2}.

(iii) y=x2x−1y=\dfrac{x^2}{x-1}.

(iv) y=x2+2x−3x+2y=\dfrac{x^2+2x-3}{x+2}.
