Solve for when 
:
Answer:
Negative 8 over 5 comma negative 6 over 5
Answer: A
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The vertical asymptote is the restriction on the x-value. Since the denominator cannot be equal to zero, then x + 1 ≠ 0 → x ≠ -1. So, the vertical asymptote is: x = -1
The horizontal asymptote is the restriction on the y-value. Since the degree of the numerator is less than the degree of the denominator, the horizontal asymptote is y = 0. However, there is a vertical shift of 2 units up so the horizontal asymptote is: y = 2
The only graph that displays these asymptotes is the first graph, <em>which I call graph A.</em>
