The rational function does not pass through Quadrant 4

I am assuming that there are parentheses around the phrase #2x+2#.

That is, the function is #y = x/(2x+2)#.

The graph of #y = x/(2x+2)# looks like this:
graph{x/(2x+2) [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

As you can see, the rational function passes through every quadrant except the lower right quadrant (that is, Quadrant 4).
