How do you find the intervals on which the function is continuous given y=2(x+4)2+8?

The function is continuous at all points except where x=-4. The domain of the function can be given by.
(,4)(4,)

Explanation:

The given function is defined only for the points where denominator i.e. (x+4)2 is not equal to zero.

the only point on the real number line where the given function is not defined is at x=4.

Hence, its interval is given by (,4)(4,). graph{(2)/((x+4)^(2))+8 [-10, 10, -5, 5]} graph{(2)/((x+4)^(2))+8 [-24.85, 16.47, 1.22, 21.87]}

Edit: Move the graph to view the horizontal asymptote at y=8+.
