I think you meant to write 19x^3, not 19x^4, in the denominator

As x-> +infinity or -infinity, f(x) approaches an asymptote of -3/5

At x=0, it equals 1/5. In the region "near" x=0, there are some wild oscillations, and probably a few crossings of the x axis (where the numerator equals zero). There may be some singularities (infinities)in a negative-x region were the denominator is zero.

I suggest you do some plotting of the function yourself.
