Answer:

option B

Explanation:

We can see in the graph that the function has two values of x where the value of y goes to infinity: x = -6 and x = 6.

These points where the value of the function goes to infinity usually are roots of the polynomial in the denominator of a fraction (when the values of x tend to these values, the denominator of the fraction tends to 0, so we have a discontinuity in the function).

So the option that represents a function that have these points in x = -6 and x = 6 is the function in option B.

The other options show functions that have only one point that goes to infinity.
