A circle has infinitely many distinct points.
2. D
i.
f {(0,1), (1, 2), (2,3)} Yes- the x’s do not repeat.
ii.
g {(1, 0), (0,1), (1, 2), (0,3)} No – the x’s repeat.
iii. h {( x, x) x R}
iv.
j {( x, 2) x R}
Yes, it is the line y = x.
Yes, it is a horizontal line y = 2.
v. k {( x, y ) x y 2, x, y R}

At x = 1, there is a hole. The VA is from setting the remaining denominator factor equal to zero. The
HA comes from the ratio of the leading coefficients.
