Denominator:

so excluded values are x = -1 and x = 1.
Answer D.
Finally figured it out :D
The function rules is:
y = -5x - 1
9 = -5(-2) - 1
4 = -5(-1) - 1
-1 = -5(0) - 1
-6 = -5(1) - 1
-11 = -5(2) - 1
DOCK
HIKE
CHOKE
FISH does not work because the S is not horizontally symmetric.
BONE doesn't work because the N is not horizontally symmetric.
Using function concepts, it is found that the correct option is given by:
a.Yes, this graph represents a polynomial. There are two turning points and the least degree possible is three.
<h3>What is the least degree possible of a polynomial?</h3>
Supposing a polynomial with n turning points, the least possible degree is of n + 1.
In this problem, the polynomial has 2 turning points, hence the least possible degree is of 3 and option a is correct.
