Answer:
B. f(x) = 3/(x^2 +2x +1)
E. f(x) = 5/(3+x)
Step-by-step explanation:
The above functions have denominators that are zero at one point. For B, that point is x=-1; for E, that point is x=-3. When the denominator is zero, the function is undefined, so the corresponding x-value must be excluded from the domain.
