Question

wha is the excluded value(s) of -1/6

Answer 1

.... you missing anything in that?

Answer 2

no

Answer 3

a first the problem was - 6k/36k then i reduced

Answer 4

at

Answer 5

reducing only makes it prettier; you still have a bad value when k=0

Answer 6

dividing by 0 is undefined; so it holds no real value

Answer 7

so k dissappars?

Answer 8

k doesnt "disappear" it is still a vital part of the .... expression

Answer 9

ok btw did i also get the simplify part wrong also?

Answer 10

when k=0 you still get: 0/0 which is undefined

Answer 11

k=undefined

Answer 12

the simplify was good; just misleading

Answer 13

i would say that we need to exclude the value k=0

Answer 14

what youre really saying with this is that k/k = 1 unless k=0

Answer 15

ohh

Answer 16

anytime 1 is multiplied to a number we get back the same number; but when k=0, we dont have 1, we have something that is undefined

Answer 17

yes

Answer 18

so it is undefined right there are no excluded values

Answer 19

to exclude means to "not use". We do not want to use the value of 0. we need to "exclude" the value of k=0.

Answer 20

there is only one excluded value for k, that is when k=0
