Things should break when you divide by zero (but the numerator, on top, is not zero), so that the result is not determined (what we usually call infinity).
The guy on bottom is zero when x+2=0, or when x = -2.
That makes f(2) = (-2+1)/(-2+2) = -1/0, which checks out as an invalid point, where f(x) loses meaning.
Any other?..... doesn't look like it, so.... your domain is simply ℝ, except {-2}, or ]-∞ , -2[ ∪ ]-2, +∞[ Yeah, that makes sense, thanks.
If they want it on a number line, just put a circle (hole) where 2 is. Do they have you graph it that way?

No they want me to write it like {x|x=/=-2}

Just signed a listing agreement to market and sell my condo after the tenant moves in 6 weeks. The housing market is en fuego again. Surprised at the numbers the agent was discussing.

guh. I meant -2. Lots of ways to make that expression; yours looks good. I've been required to use the hole symbolism in the past. I like the one they are requiring, since putting a hole on the number line is pretty ambiguous.

Needed some straps to hold my cross-country skis together at the ends to make them easier to carry to and from the car. Couldn't be arsed to drive to the closest ski store. Found some leftover sewing stuff (canvas, bias tape, Velcro) and made a pair. Skis are happy and so am I.

Reading up on the 60% tax the state of Washington wants to put on vaping supplies and equipment. It'll be a bad, bad thing for local vaping business and Wash. state vapers.
For anyone there interested in fighting it, it's house bill HB 2165.
Taxes are one thing. 60% is just fucking crazy.

Huge sigh of relief - the spot on my brother's liver that was detected by CT scan was revealed by today's MRI to simply be fat. While a fatty liver isn't a good thing, it's a hell of a lot better than cancer.

My friend is off in Central America and I miss her!
I just hope she's having the time of her life.

just watched Discovery S01E15.
Who's seen the ending? WTAF!
But it was nice seeing the NCC1**1... (sorry I'm trying to be discreet ![Big Grin Big Grin](https://atheistforums.org/images/smilies/biggrin.gif) )
