You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y=x%2F%28%28x%2B2%29%28x%2B1%29%29%2B%282%28x%2B2%29%29%2F%28%28x%2B2%29%28x%2B1%29%29
y=%28x%2B2%28x%2B2%29%29%2F%28%28x%2B2%29%28x%2B1%29%29
y=%28x%2B2x%2B4%29%2F%28%28x%2B2%29%28x%2B1%29%29
y=%283x%2B4%29%2F%28%28x%2B2%29%28x%2B1%29%29

So the domain is all values except x=-2 and x=-1.

Not one-to-one since it doesn't pass the horizontal line test.
