Question

help please..excluded values of 60x^3/12x ?

Answer 1

excluded values are the values of x that would make the denominator 0. any ideas?

Answer 2

@pitamar well i had 5x^2 but i was thinking that was just a simplified version...or is that the excluded value? i felt like that was wrong

Answer 3

Just in case, what was it in the first place? though no, I don't think it's necessarily wrong.

Answer 4

when finding excluded values i thought the final answer is supposed to look something like x ≠ such and such @pitamar

Answer 5

yes.. but for this, you have to find for what values 'x' is illegal. x value is a illegal for example, when it makes a division by 0. because then it has undefined behavior of dividing by 0..
So.. when does it happen?

Answer 6

so 0 is the excluded value? @pitamar

Answer 7

yes, because \( 12x \ne 0 \quad \implies \quad x \ne 0 \)

Answer 8

thanks for the help! @pitamar
