Question

for what value of x would the quotient (4x2 + 3x -5)/(x+3) not make sense A.3 B.-1 C.-3 D.0

Answer 1

-3, that would make the denominator -3+3=0, and you cant divide by zero

Answer 2

how would you figure this out

Answer 3

@erica5973 did you understand????

Answer 4

not really

Answer 5

(4x2 + 3x -5)/(x+3) the question asks which value of x doesnt make sense. The answer is minus 3 because, the bottom half of the fraction (the denominator) would equal zero if x=-3.
1/5 is bigger than 1/3 which is bigger than 1/2. If you imagine dividing by a smaller and smaller number, the fraction gets bigger and bigger. So when you divide by zero, the fraction is infinately big, which doesnt make sense

Answer 6

ohh thatnks
