Answer

$$ f(x)=\frac{x^{2}+6 x+9}{|x|+3} $$ is continuous for all real numbers $x$ in domain $f $

Work Step by Step

$$ f(x)=\frac{x^{2}+6 x+9}{|x|+3} $$ The function being graphed is a rational function, and hence is continuous at every number where the denominator is nonzero. But the equation $$ |x|+3=0 $$ has no solution because $ |x|+3 \gt 0 $ for all $x$ in the domain Therefore the function $$ f(x)=\frac{x^{2}+6 x+9}{|x|+3} $$ is continuous for all real numbers $x$ in domain $f $
