Answer
x-intercepts: $\qquad -1$ and $1.$
y-intercept: $\qquad \displaystyle \approx\frac{1}{4}$
Vertical asymptotes: $\qquad x=-2,\quad x=2$
Horizontal asymptote: $\qquad y=1$
Work Step by Step
The graph crosses the x-axis at ($-1,0$) and at ($1,0$)
x-intercepts: $-1$ and $1.$
The graph crosses the y-axis at about ($0,\displaystyle \frac{1}{4}$)
y-intercept: $\displaystyle \frac{1}{4}$
Vertical lines where the function is undefined,
and the graph rises/falls without bound on either side,
are
$x=-2$ (a vertical asymptote).
and
$x=2$ (a vertical asymptote).
The horizontal line, which the graph approaches when $x\rightarrow\pm\infty,$ is $y=1$ (the horizontal asymptote).
