Determine if the given function has any points of discontinuity. Explain your reasoning.

Question illustration
A
There is a point of discontinuity at x = b because the denominator has the factor x – b.
B
There are points of discontinuity at both x = – b and x = b because the numerator has factors of x + b and x – b.
C
There is a point of discontinuity at x = -b only because the factor of x – b is common to both the numerator and denominator.
D
There is a point of discontinuity at x = b only because the factor of x – b is common to both the numerator and denominator and factors out.
