Note that when x = 4, y = 0. Then substituting (x, y) = (4, 0) gives:
4+A4B+C=04+A=0A=−4
Now, note that the vertical asymptote occurs at x = 3. That means the denominator (Bx + C) is 0 when x = 3. Then 3B + C = 0.
Then, note that lim since y approaches -1 when x approaches infinity. Then .
Since 3B + C = 0, C = 3.
Therefore, the function is . A + B + C = -4 + (-1) + 3 = -2.
