If the expression is -11%2F%2825x%29, then you set the denominator equal to zero. Then solve for x.

25x=0

25x%2F25=0%2F25

x=0

So if x+=+0 then the denominator is zero. To avoid division by zero errors, we must restrict x to not be equal to zero. It can equal any other number.

So the restriction would be written as x%3C%3E0 (x cannot be equal to zero)
