How do I simplify this?

Domain: all real numbers except 0 and -3

Vertical asymptotes: x = 0; x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain is the set of numbers that can be substituted for x.

The expression has x in the denominator. Since division by zero is undefined, x cannot have any value that would cause a zero in the denominator.  To find which values of x cause a zero in the denominator, we set the denominator equal to zero and solve the equation for x.

2x^2 + 6x = 0

Factor 2x.

2x(x + 3) = 0

Divide both sides by 2.

x(x + 3) = 0

x = 0 or x + 3 = 0

x = 0 or x = -3

Since the values x = 0 and x = -3 cause the denominator to equal zero, these two values of x must be excluded from the domain.

Domain: all real numbers except 0 and -3

The vertical asymptotes happen at the x values excluded from the domain.

Vertical asymptotes: x = 0; x = -3
