(x-7)(x+7)/(x+7) =x-7
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah
OpenStudy (karatechopper):

this isn't algebra i know the answer is 0 but that is not what the question is asking
OpenStudy (karatechopper):
i knoow tht was not the question u were asking
OpenStudy (karatechopper):
ok hold on i am getting to the solving.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you cannot solve it
OpenStudy (karatechopper):
x=-7
(-7^2-49)/(-7+7)
(49-49)/(-7+7)
0/0

okay if you read the question, it says give the formula for the extended function that is continous at x=-7, do you know what that means?
OpenStudy (karatechopper):
nah not really
OpenStudy (anonymous):
exactly, all you did was plug in -7 where you saw x, but that is not what the question is asking us to do
OpenStudy (karatechopper):
so, atleast i tried...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah sure you tired, you tired answering the wrong question

x-7 if x is not equal to -7
Now we take the limit as x ===>7, (x-7), this gives us zero.
Thus we define the function (x^2-49)/(x+7) only if x is not equal to -7
