    1. A graph can intersect a vertical asymptote but not a horizontal asymptote. It is possible for a graph to have 0, 1, or multiple horizontal asymptotes depending on its behavior as x approaches positive or negative infinity. 2. The given function has a horizontal asymptote at y=0 as the limit approaches positive and negative infinity. The limit does not exist as x approaches 3. The horizontal asymptote is y=2. 3. To find horizontal and vertical asymptotes, evaluate limits as x approaches positive/negative infinity and removable discontinuities to determine the asymptotes' equations. Compare the highest powers of polynomials in the numerator and denominator.
