I tend to think of this function as a transformation of the function f ( x ) = 1 x , which has a horizontal asymptote at y=0 and a vertical asymptote at x=0.
The general form of this equation is f ( x ) = a x - h + k
In this transformation, h=0 and k=3, so the vertical asymptote is not shifted left or right, and the horizontal asymptote is shifted up three units to y=3.
