To do this, we need to find the roots of the equation x^2 + 6x + 8 = 0.
We can factor the equation by finding two numbers that multiply to 8 and add to 6. The numbers are 2 and 4.
So, the factored form of the equation is (x + 2)(x + 4) = 0.
Setting each factor to zero gives us x + 2 = 0 and x + 4 = 0. Solving these equations gives us x = -2 and x = -4.
Therefore, the points of discontinuity are at x = -2 and x = -4.
