Medals please help Find the non permissible replacement for: y+1/(y-5)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A) 5 B) -1 C) 0 D)1 which one is the correct one??? C????

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5. In the case where y=5, denominator is 0. Dividng by 0 is not allowed in math.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So the answer is 5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep! A.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you! Could you help me with one more? 4/5x a)0 b) none of the above c) 5 d)1 Would it be d???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Im thinking it would be D so the denominator stays 5??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It is A. Since A makes the denominator 0, it is undefined. Remember; you can never have a 0 denominator.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So it would be 0?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes. Since 5*0=0. hope this helps!
