What does it mean excluded value?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

umm like forget about it @TheBlackSnow

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well ok

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

set the denominator equal to 0, then solve x

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

excluded values of a rational function are the values that make the denominator 0, there by making the function undefined.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

look at the first fraction, whats the denominator ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2x-1

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yes ! set it equal to 0, and isolate x

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

what do u get ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2x-1=0 x=1/2 1 divided by 2= 0.5

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Excellent ! so, x = 1/2 is the excluded value for this fraction.
