The answer is D. -2 is an excluded value, because when you simplify the expression, you get -3q - 6 on the bottom. You can't divide by zero, and if q was -2, you would be doing so, so the answer is D.
[tex]\frac{q + 5}{-3} \times \frac{-3q}{q + 2} = \frac{q + 5}{1} \times \frac{q}{q + 2} = \frac{q^{2} + 5q}{q + 2}[/tex]

The answer is D.
