Points are plotted at (-2, 2), (-2, -4), and (2, -4). A fourth point is drawn such that the four points can be connected to form a rectangle. What is the area of this rectangle?

12 square units
24 square units
16 square units
8 square units

24 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

c

step-by-step explanation:

there is vertical asymptote at x = 2 and x = 0

vertical asymptote occurs at the points where the denominator is 0. so we can say that

x = 2 occurs when there is a factor (x-2) in the denominator, and

x = 0 occurs when there is a factor "x" in the denominator

thus, the denominator of the equation would have "x * (x-2)", this is option c only. that's the correct answer.
