Below

Explanation:

#y=3/(x-1)-2# can be rewritten as:

#y=-2+3/(x-1)#

Domain: all real x except #x=1#
Range: all real y except #y=-2#

The domain and range are both found by letting y approach 0 and x approach 0 respectively.

First, you would draw in your dotted lines with the equation #x=1# and #y=-2#. Then you would find whether or not the ends of your graph approaches the top or bottom of the asmpytotes.
