When you represent intervals on the number line, you're including full dots, excluding empty dots, and you're considering numbers highlighted by the line.
In the first case, you've highlighted everything before -2 (full dot, thus included), and everything after 1 (empty dot, excluded). So, the set would be
or, in interval notation,
In the second case, you are looking for all numbers between -3 and 5. This interval is symmetric with respect to 1: you're considering all numbers that are at most 4 units away from 1, both to the left and to the right.
This means that the difference between your numbers at 1 must be at most 4, which is modelled by
where the absolute values guarantees that you'll pick numbers to the left and to the right of 1.

Step-by-step explanation:
I'm assuming you meant to type in
because you can only have removable discontinuities where there is a rational (fraction) function. Begin by factoring both the numerator and denominator to
and cancelling out like terms would have us eliminating the (x + 3). That is where there is a removable discontinuity. It leaves a hole. The other discontinuity, (x + 1) doesn't cancel out so it is a non-removable discontuinity, which is a vertical asymptote.
The removable discontinuity is at -3. There is no y value at x = -3 (remember there's only a hole here), because -3 causes the denominator to go to 0 and we all know that having a 0 in the denominator of a fraction is a big no-no!!!
