\(\frac{x^2}{x - 1 + x^3} \)

 

 

Because we have a polynomial of  lesser degree divided by a polynomial of greater degree, this rational function  has no minimum  value  for x > 1

 

It will  approach  0   as x grows larger and larger   (this always happens in a  lower degree / higher degree function)
