I dont understand this one bit, please someone explain this to me. Find all numbers for which the rational expression is not defined. -3 over 2x
a rational expression that is not defined is when you divide something by 0 (that's when you get an error on your calculator too). What value does x need to be for -3/(2x) to be -3/0?
X is zero?
exactly! That's simply it
still a little fuzzy on whats going on here, how about 5over x-8, do i just plus 8 to make the demominator zero?
yep, you got it. If you had 10/(2x-4), what would it be?
x=2
perfect, I've got nothing more to teach you on the subject it seems! ;-)
- so before all you need to know that one fraction whene is undefined ? - answer : when the denominator = zero - so in this case if there is -3/2x so from this resulted that when x=0 so than the denominator = zero so than this fraction will be undefined
that you that helps
