We are given

[tex] y=\frac{x^2-4x+3}{x^2-9} [/tex]

Vertical asymptotes:

Firstly, we will factor numerator and denominator

we get

[tex] y=\frac{(x-1)(x-3)}{(x-3)(x+3)} [/tex]

We can see that (x-3) is common in both numerator and denominator

so, we will only set x+3 to 0

and then we can find vertical asymptote

[tex] x+3=0 [/tex]

[tex] x=-3 [/tex]

Hole:

We can see that (x-3) is common in both numerator and denominator

so, hole will be at x-3=0

[tex] x-3=0 [/tex]

[tex] x=3 [/tex]

Horizontal asymptote:

We can see that degree of numerator is 2

degree of denominator is also 2

for finding horizontal asymptote, we find ratio of leading coefficients of numerator and denominator

and we get

[tex] y=\frac{1}{1}  [/tex]

[tex] y=1  [/tex]

so, option-D............Answer
