On The graph, the following information was given:
Point of discontinuity( -2,0) and (1,-3)
X intercept at ( 2,0)
Yintercept (0,-4)
This is what I had : (x+2)(x-2)(x-1)/ (x+2)(x-1)
But the answer is that u have to put (x+2)^2 in the numerator instead of what I had.
But I thought that the point of discontinuity was on that spot ( xintercept) and thus it would not be counted that there was an xintercept AND a point of discontinuity at that spot. Can someone explain this to me?
