Question 1198861: Which of the following is true of f(x)?
f(x)= (x^2+8x+15)/(x^2-2x-15).
One of the following is the correct answer. Which one is correct?
A) f(x) has vertical asymptotes at x=5 and x=-2, and a horizontal asymptote at y=1
B) f(x) has vertical asymptotes at x=-3 and a horizontal asymptote at y=0
C) f(x) has vertical asymptotes at x=-3, a hole at x5, and a horizontal asymptote.
D) f(x) has vertical asymptotes at x=5, a hole at x=-3, and a horizontal asymptote at y=1
