The curve C has equation \(y = \frac{x^2}{x-3}\).
- (a) Find the equations of the asymptotes of C.
- (b) Show that there is no point on C for which \(0 < y < 12\).
- (c) Sketch C.
- (d)
- Sketch the graphs of \(y = \left| \frac{x^2}{x-3} \right|\) and \(y = |x| - 3\) on a single diagram, stating the coordinates of the intersections with the axes.
- Use your sketch to find the set of values of \(c\) for which \(\left| \frac{x^2}{x-3} \right| \leq |x| + c\) has no solution.
