ive never seen that before ...... can you explain it to me
OpenStudy (priyar):
you have never seen that because..this division is impossible..Just remember this: "Denominator can never be zero.."
OpenStudy (priyar):
Do you agree?
OpenStudy (ayonnaleflore):
yes so that means we nees so cancel values out so that nothing is n the bottom??
OpenStudy (priyar):
no.. its more like this: a+2 can never be zero.. right?

OpenStudy (ayonnaleflore):
but it can equal zero right??
OpenStudy (priyar):
which? a?
OpenStudy (ayonnaleflore):
a+2
OpenStudy (priyar):
a+2 can't be equal to zero .. because a+2 is the denominator and denominator can never be zero.. okay?
OpenStudy (ayonnaleflore):
yes so what process is used to solve this problem??

when will a+2 be zero?
OpenStudy (ayonnaleflore):
im not sure
OpenStudy (priyar):
ok..lemme put it this way..:
a+2=0
a=?
OpenStudy (priyar):
a=-2..right?
OpenStudy (ayonnaleflore):
yes -2

OpenStudy (priyar):
so is a=-2 then the expression becomes meaningless.. so a not equal to zero... so which option is it? @ayonnaleflore
OpenStudy (ayonnaleflore):
There are no restrictions on the values of variable a.
OpenStudy (priyar):
how?
OpenStudy (priyar):
i have almost given you the answer!!
OpenStudy (ayonnaleflore):
well a doesnt have a value so.....

OpenStudy (priyar):
a not equal to zero-> this is a restriction
OpenStudy (priyar):
okay.. what is the first option in words?
OpenStudy (ayonnaleflore):

OpenStudy (priyar):
yes!! does it match with the condition we have come up with?
OpenStudy (ayonnaleflore):
yes
