Answer

The vertical asymptote is the line $x=5$. The horizontal asymptote is the line $y=-1$.

Work Step by Step

Given $g(x)=\frac{3}{x-5}-1$ $x-5=0 $ $x=5$ The vertical asymptote is the line $x=5$. The horizontal asymptote is the line $y=-1$. Make a list of values: $x=−4→ y=-\frac{4}{3}$ $x=−1→ y=-\frac{3}{2}$ $x=0→ y=\frac{-8}{5}$ $x=4→ y=-4$ $x=8→ y=0$
