Solution
vertical asymptotes at x =-4 , x =2 => denominator of function contain (x+4)(x-2)
x intercept at x =5 ,x=3 => numerator has (x-5)(x-3)
let function be y =k((x-5)(x-3))/((x+4)(x-2))
given horizontal asymptote at y =3
horizontal asymptote y =limx->infinityk((x-5)(x-3))/((x+4)(x-2)) =3
limx->infinityk(x2(1- 5/x)(1 -3/x))/(x2(1 +4/x)(1 -2/x)) =3
limx->infinityk((1- 5/x)(1 -3/x))/((1 +4/x)(1 -2/x)) =3
k((1- 0)(1 -0))/((1 +0)(1 -0)) =3
k=3
function is y =3((x-5)(x-3))/((x+4)(x-2))
