The hole occurs at x2 - 3 = 0.
What value of x is that?

Mark, there's only a hole when a denominator factor (original) cancels an identical factor found in original numerator.
I believe that this function has two vertical asymptotes and no hole. And y=0 is an horizontal asymptote.

Again, Kenneth, you are right on. The function has two vertical asymptotes, x = ±√3
