by some miracle the denominator factors as
\[x^2+14x-24=(3x-4)(x+6)\]
set it equal to zero, solve for \(x\) and that will give you the restriction on the variable (since you cannot divide by zero)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
typo there, i meant \[3x^2+14x-24=(3x-4)(x+6)\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then factor the numerator, and cancel any common factor top and bottom
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what do you mean set it to equal zero?

i mean put
\[(3x-4)(x+6)=0\] and solve for \(x\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
And the answer would give me the restriction of the domain?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I got -5 and -1
