You can put this solution on YOUR website! The function is equivalent to except where x = -3 (this is where the hole is). Other than x = -3, the function is constant. You could say that the asymptote is 1, but a horizontal asymptote is usually defined as y "approaching" 1 as x goes to positive or negative infinity. I would still call this an asymptote, as an asymptote is defined if
for constant c (c is the horizontal asymptote. Limit may also approach negative infinity.)
