anonymous · Answer

its undefined when denominator = 0 
that is when h = 1/2

can show me the way?

anonymous · Answer

substitute x = 1/2 into your function
 f(x)= p-x / 2x-1
when x = 1/2
f(x) =( p -1/2 ) / ( 2(1/2) - 1 )  =( p - 1/2) / 1 -1 =  p - 1/2 / 0

anything divided by 0 is undefined
