(3x^2+5x-8)/(6x+16)*(4x^2+x)/(3x^2-3x)

@Australopithecus @jdoe0001 @pooja195 @TheSmartOne @Awolflover1
OpenStudy (saylilbaby):
2/(x^2-1)+x/(x^2-2x+1)

@Astrophysics
OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):
let me rewrite that \(\Large \frac{(3x^2+5x-8)}{(6x+16)} \times \frac{(4x^2+x)}{(3x^2-3x)}\)

that's what you have?
OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):
for excluded values you look at what makes the denominator equal to zero
OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):
but before doing so we would like to simplify first factoring if possible
OpenStudy (saylilbaby):
the answer was (3x^33-8)(4x+1)/6(3x+8)(x-1) @xapproachesinfinity
OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):
can we factor \(3x^2+5x-8\)

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):
answer for what?
OpenStudy (saylilbaby):
yes we can factor that @xapproachesinfinity
OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):
so what are the factors
OpenStudy (saylilbaby):
(3x+8)(x-1) @xapproachesinfinity
OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):
yes!

so we have \(\Large \frac{(3x+8)(x-1)}{(6x+16)}\times \frac{(4x+1)}{3(x-1)}\)
\(\Large \frac{(3x+8)(4x+1)}{3(6x+16)}\)
OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):
so what make denominator now equal to 0
OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):
6x+16=0 ===> x=-16/6
x=-8/3
OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):
excluded value -8/3
OpenStudy (saylilbaby):
ok thanks can you help with the secondequation @xapproachesinfinity
