A. x=0 is the excluded value of the function because it would result in a division by zero.

AAAaannndd the bot gets it wrong yet again!

This is why parentheses are important
-2/(5x+40) excludes x = -8

I apologize for the mistake. You are correct that the excluded value of the function is x=-8. Thank you for pointing out the error.
