Please help!! I will fan and medal.

Kelly tells you that when variables are in the denominator, the equation becomes unsolvable. "There is a value for x that makes the denominator zero, and you can't divide by zero," Kelly explains. Using complete sentences, demonstrate to Kelly how the equation is still solvable.

@amistre64 @phi @dumbcow Help please?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

use other values ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

? @amistre64

OpenStudy (amistre64):

this seems to be a rather vague question ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x can be any number but cannot be the number which makes the denominator zero.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

but if x=a is not workable, then let x not equal a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would that be the complete anwser though? @M0j0jojo

OpenStudy (amistre64):

i have no idea what the complete answer is ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So I would have to use a different value? @amistre64

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea me neither

OpenStudy (amistre64):

what does it mean to 'solvable'?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What could I put as a response? I honestly have no idea what to say to this question. @M0j0jojo @amistre64 Do you have any idea of what I could put?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

if the question is: what is the solution to 1/(x-1) when x=1 then yeah, theres no solution but if the question is: what is 1/(x-1) = 1/3 then there is a solutio

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the question is just vague

OpenStudy (amistre64):

it all depends on what 'solvable' is refering to

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'll just put "X would have to be any number but cannot be the number which makes the denominator zero. If x=a is not workable then let x not equal a. " and pray I get it right. Thank you for your help though!! @amistre64 @M0j0jojo
