It’s definitely A
Ex: f(x)=8x+2
f(x)=8(-4)+2
f(x)=-32+2
f(x)=-30
To solve for x
bx=-7
divide b on both sides
x=-7/b
to solve for b
bx=-7
divide x on both sides
b=-7/x
ANSWER
The restrictions are

EXPLANATION
We were given the rational function,

The function is defined for all values of a, except

This has become a quadratic trinomial, so we need to split the middle term.
We do that by multiplying the coefficient of
which is 5 by the constant term which is 3. This gives us 15.
The factors of 15 that adds up to 16 are 1 and 15.
We use these factors to split the middle term.

We now factor to get,

We factor further to get,

This implies that,

This gives

These are the restrictions.
