Hello rafie !

 

Y =  x^2 / (x^2 + 1)

 

Y = (x^2 + 1 - 1)/(x^2 + 1)

 

Y = 1 - 1/(x^2+1)

 

1)It is clear that the function is always less than 1

 

2) x = 0  --> y = 0

3) when x is equal to infinty then y = 1.

4) dy/dx = 2x/(x^2+1)^2 i.e  x>0  increasing  and x < 0 decreasing ...

 

Now the graph is simple ...
