Question 1206908: Write the equation of a possible rational function given the following information. Leave in factored form.
Vertical asymptote x = 2, discontinuous point (−3, −4/5), x - intercept at x = −5 and horizontal asymptote at y = 2.

a rational function :

where and are both polynomials
given:
Vertical asymptote : value of that makes denominator equal to zero , so


- intercept at =>numerator is


so far

horizontal asymptote at , the highest power of numerator and denominator are same and coefficient of numerator is times that of denominator



discontinuous point (, )

check given point
=> true

=>for , denominator will be , so add to both, numerator and denominator, and your equation is:
