INTRODUCTION

An asymptote is a line that a function approaches but never reaches as it tends toward infinity. Asymptotes are important in analyzing the behavior of a function, or as a graphical representation of a function. 

 

Given details:  A function has a horizontal asymptote at y=2 and two vertical asymptotes, at x=1 and x=-1. Also, the function should be continuous for all x1,-1.

To determine:   We have to draw the graph of the function with all the above conditions.
