How do you graph and find the discontinuities of y=(3x) /( 4-x^2)?

For discontinuities you first look at the denominator.

Explanation:

That can be factorised into (2-x)(2+x)

So x=2orx=-2 will make the denominator =0 and are not allowed.
Also the function will come to look like -3/(4x) as the 4 will make less and less difference as x grows larger, or:

lim_(x-> oo)=0and lim_(x-> -oo)=0
graph{3x/(4-x^2) [-16.02, 16.01, -8.01, 8.01]}
