Question

Here is the new question!

Answer 1

@wio

Answer 2

when is the denominator \(0\)? That is where the whole should be.

Answer 3

What do you mean?

Answer 4

The denominator, the bottom part. When does it become 0? That is where the function has a hole.

Answer 5

ok?

Answer 6

ok and how does that have to do with the question? @wio

Answer 7

the graphs have holes in them....

Answer 8

If you knew which one had the right hole, you would have the solution...

Answer 9

ok !

Answer 10

so continue! @wio

Answer 11

wouldnt i have to solve for the equation @wio

Answer 12

right? @wio

Answer 13

What, I already explained it...

Answer 14

is the hole at 1 or -1?

Answer 15

-1 @wio

Answer 16

Good. Now let \(x=0\) and find the \(y\) intercept.

Answer 17

That will tell you what value it should be when it hits the y axis.

Answer 18

2? @wio

Answer 19

No

Answer 20

or 1? @wio

Answer 21

show your work

Answer 22

Is it 1?

Answer 23

Are you trying to make me angry?

Answer 24

Plug \(x=0\). What do you get?

Answer 25

Excuse you? I am just asking ok?

Answer 26

I never did anything to disrespect you ok?

Answer 27

Well, you are playing this guess and check game, even though I asked for you to show me your work.

Answer 28

Ok but I am just asking and that happens! That is there people like you to help students like us to be able to solve it!

Answer 29

wait just to be clear it would be 0-1=y right?

Answer 30

no, we have \[
y = \frac{4x^2-4x-8}{2x+2}
\]

Answer 31

ok

Answer 32

then we let \(x=0\)

Answer 33

oh ok i apoligize!

Answer 34

I wasn't being serious.

Answer 35

oh ok! really, you did that to make me show the work! :)

Answer 36

i get -4!

Answer 37

@wio

Answer 38

Yeah. So we can now do elimination. We know there is a hole at \(x=-1\) and it goes through the \(y\) axis at \(y=-4\).

Answer 39

yup!

Answer 40

would it be the second answer @wio

Answer 41

but the second one has a hold at \(x=1\) so it can't be right.

Answer 42

the third one @wio

Answer 43

Guessing again?

Answer 44

Does the third one go through \(y\) at \(-4\)?

Answer 45

no the x=-1

Answer 46

nevermind its the 4th one? i have to be right!

Answer 47

@wio

Answer 48

right?

Answer 49

@wio

Answer 50

does the 4th one go through \(4\) when it intersects with \(y\) axis?

Answer 51

no?

Answer 52

then the 4th one can't be right.

Answer 53

its the first one! @wio

Answer 54

Yes...

Answer 55

ok i did the next one and i already eliminated the last two answers

Answer 56

@wio

Answer 57

it already plugged in 0 and got the answer that it is -6

Answer 58

@wio

Answer 59

right? or at least @UsukiDoll can you help me out here
