Graph the Function, Showing All Asymptotes (Those That Do Not $$f ( x ) = \frac { x ^ { 2 } - 9 } { x + 2 }$$

question 78

Multiple Choice

Graph the function, showing all asymptotes (those that do not correspond to an axis) as dashed lines. List the x- and
y-intercepts.
- $$f ( x ) = \frac { x ^ { 2 } - 9 } { x + 2 }$$

• A) \(x\)-intercepts: \(( - 3,0 )\) and \(( 3,0 ) , y\)-intercept: \(\left( 0 , \frac { 9 } { 2 } \right)\)
• B) \(x\)-intercepts: \(( - 3,0 )\) and \(( 3,0 ) , \mathrm { y }\)-intercept: \(\left( 0 , - \frac { 9 } { 2 } \right)\)
• C) x-intercept: \(( 0,0 ) , y\)-intercept: \(( 0,0 )\);
• D) \(x\)-intercept: \(( 0,0 ) , y\)-intercept: \(( 0,0 )\);
