What is the horizontal asymptote of the graph of (y=2/(x+1)-3)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: y=-3

The governing concept is the end behavior of a rational function. In y=2/(x+1)−3, as x becomes very large positive or negative, the denominator x+1 also grows in magnitude, so 2/(x+1) approaches 0. Consequently y approaches 0−3=−3. The graph gets arbitrarily close to the horizontal line y=−3, which is its horizontal asymptote; option A is correct. The line x=−1 is the vertical asymptote because it makes the denominator zero. The values y=2 and x=3 do not describe the limiting behavior of this function. The numerator coefficient changes the approach pattern but not the horizontal asymptote.
