For what value of x would the quotient (3x^2+4x-5)/(x+2) not make sense?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the question is incomplete...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you want the x values where the expression is defined?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk its on apex

OpenStudy (anonymous):

apex?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its an online class im taking so i cn skip a grade

OpenStudy (anonymous):

still, the question is incomplete...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so wat wld i put

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk what the question is asking... it could be where the expression is defined... and that would be for \(\large x\neq -2 \)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh you just changed the question...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol i nvr finished typing the question i fixed it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the expression wouldn't make sense at x=2 because then the denominator would equal zero... and dividing by zero is taboo....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you could go to jail if you divide by zero...:(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2 .... i mean negative 2.. \[\huge x=-2 \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah, @dpaInc is right. if you're talking about where x can't be a value, it's -2 because then you would be dividing it by 0. and when you try to divide by 0, unicorns explode.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

true story^^^...:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

umm okaii then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok... so you'll never divide by zero , ok?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

poor unicorns. :'(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okaii

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah, i'm weird. :P
