SOLUTION: If the expression 4z + 1 over 4z - 6 is to make sense, the values that z can take must be restricted. State the restriction on z.

Denominators can NEVER be zero, so any value that makes a denominator equal zero is a restriction. In this case, the denominator is 4z-6.

Therefore, the denominator 4z-6 must not be zero.
Therefore, the forbidden value would be
4z-6=0

Add 6 to both sides:
4z=6

Divide both sides by 4:

IS THE FORBIDDEN VALUE!!

Therefore the restriction on z is that Z must NOT equal .
