Its horizontal asymptote is y=10/7.

By taking the limits at infinity,
lim_{x to infty}{(2x+3)(5x-2)}/{7x^2-3}
by divide the numerator and the denominator by x^2,
=lim_{x to +infty}{(2+3/x)(5-2/x)}/{7-3/x^2}={(2+0)(5-0)}/{7-0}=10/7

Similarly, you can find
lim_{x to -infty}{(2x+3)(5x-2)}/{7x^2-3}=10/7

Hence, there is only one horizontal asymptote y=10/7.
