Can you solve this math problem?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

ehehe a more descriptive post would help too

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

What is the graph of the function f(x) = \[\frac{ x^2+9x+20 }{ x+4 }\]

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

hint: \(\bf \cfrac{ x^2+9x+20 }{ x+4 }\implies \cfrac{\cancel{(x+4)}(x+5)}{\cancel{x+4}}\) the simplified version BUT with the orignal's constraints so a hole at x = -4

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

I'm pretty sure it's D. According to what you just said, I'm right....

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

hmmm hint: x+5 has a positive slope, so is "increasing", not "decreasing"

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

Oh so it's A? That doesn't make sense though...

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

If it's at x=-4 shouldn't the line be going down?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

ahemm nope, it could go either way recall that "a point" has infinite lines going through it

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

?

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

Oops I meant A lol sorry
