Graphing Techniques - Sketching Rational Functions

The equation of a curve \(C\) is given by \(y=1+\frac{6}{x-3}-\frac{24}{x+3}\).

  1. Write down the equations of the asymptotes.
  2. Find the coordinates of the points where \(C\) meets the axes.
  3. Without using a calculator, find the set of values of \(y\) for which there are no points on \(C\).
  4. Sketch \(C\).
