..
When the degree of the numerator is 1 less than the degree of the denominator, as in this case, the horizontal asymptote is the x-axis or y=0.
Vertical asymptotes are found by setting the denominator=0, then solving for x-values which makes the function undefined.
x^2-9=0
(x+3)(x-3)=0
x≠3
and
x≠-3
horizontal asymptotes: x-axis
Vertical asymptotes: x=3, x=-3)
