Horizontal asymptotes
Let’s find horizontal asymptotes with help of the limits of this function at x->+oo and x->-oo
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\frac{4 - x}{2 x - 1}\right) = - \frac{1}{2}$$

so,

$$y = - \frac{1}{2}$$
$$\lim_{x \to \infty}\left(\frac{4 - x}{2 x - 1}\right) = - \frac{1}{2}$$

Inclined asymptotes
Inclined asymptote can be found by calculating the limit of (4 - x)/(2*x - 1), divided by x at x->+oo and x ->-oo
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\frac{4 - x}{x \left(2 x - 1\right)}\right) = 0$$

Even and odd functions
Let's check, whether the function even or odd by using relations f = f(-x) и f = -f(-x).
So, check:
$$\frac{4 - x}{2 x - 1} = \frac{x + 4}{- 2 x - 1}$$
- No
$$\frac{4 - x}{2 x - 1} = - \frac{x + 4}{- 2 x - 1}$$
- No
so, the function
not is
neither even, nor odd
