Which function has both vertical asymptote at x=2x = 2 and horizontal asymptote at y=1y = -1?

  • A

    y=x+3x2y = \frac{-x + 3}{x - 2}

  • B

    y=x1x+2y = \frac{-x - 1}{x + 2}

  • C

    y=x+1x2y = \frac{x + 1}{x - 2}

  • D

    y=x12xy = \frac{x - 1}{2 - x}

Explanation

Vertical: x2=0x=2x - 2 = 0 \Rightarrow x = 2. Horizontal: leading coefficients ratio 11=1\frac{-1}{1} = -1.
