    (x²+4x+3) / 2 (x²-10x+25)

    the horizontal asymptote when the numerator and the denominator have the same degree (in this case, both of a degree of 2) is ration of the coefficients of the numerator and denominator. In this case, the coefficient for numerator x² is 1, and the coefficient for the denominator 2x² is 2, so the horizontal asymptote is y=1/2=0.5

    the vertical asymptote is the x value. the denominator cannot be zero, if x²-10x+25=0, x would be 5, so the vertical asymptote is x=5

    this is just one example. There can be others:

    (2x²+5x+2) / [ (4x-7) (x-5) ] for another example, but this example has a second vertical asymptote 4x-7=0 = >x=7/4
