Consider the function g(x)=x/x-7.
a) Summarize the increasing and decreasing intervals.
b) Compare the slopes of the tangents at the points where i) x=7.5 and x=20
ii) x=6.5 and x=-20

ya i seen that on have the same question that i got, but when i try to sketch the function of x/x-7 on the wolfram Alpha i get the wrong answer, so i couldn't do a and b without graphing this.
*help me please*

probably did not get the correct graph because you skipped the brackets
If you entered the equation as
y = x/x-7 , you got a straight horizontal line at y = -6
because
y = x/x - 7 = 1-7 = -6
You MUST include brackets, such as
y = x/(x-7)

The graph in red would be yours,
the one in blue would be mine.
