What is the horizontal asymptote of the function f(x) = (4x^2 - 3x + 1) / (2x^2 + 5x - 7)?
✓ Correct Answer: Option B
For a rational function, if the degree of the numerator equals the degree of the denominator (both are 2 here), the horizontal asymptote is the ratio of their leading coefficients. Thus, y = 4/2 = 2.
