What type of equation is h(x)=x^2/(x-1.5)?

[flash]

I have the following function:

h(x)= $$\frac{x^2}{x-1.5}$$

and I want to know what kind of equation you would call this. It looks like a hyperbola when I graphed it but it has no $$y^2$$ term.

It is called a rational function - the ratio of 2 polynomials.
