  1. Sketch the graph of \(y=\dfrac{3x^2+4x+5}{x^2+8x+15}\). Label clearly the equations of the asymptotes of the graph and the coordinates of the turning points and the point(s) where the graph cuts the axes.[7]
  2. Hence solve the inequality \(\dfrac{-2x^2+4x+10}{x^2+8x+15}\leq\mathrm e^{-x}\).[5]
