B
The horizontal asymptote of y = 0 means that the person’s temperature will approach 0ºF as time elapses.
C
The horizontal asymptote of y = 4 means that the person’s temperature will approach 102.6ºF as time elapses.
D
The horizontal asymptote of y = 4 means that the person’s temperature will approach 4ºF as time elapses.
