Question 1107857: Hi can someone please help me.
I have to simplify the expression and state the excluded values, if there are any.
I have the expression simplified but I need help find the excluded values.
The expression was
5x-5/10x^2-25x+15
I have
x-1/
2x^2-5x+3
x-1/
(2x-3)(x-1)
1/
2x-3
Is this right? and are there any excluded values? if so how do I know what they are?
Thank you.

The expression was
5x-5/10x^2-25x+15
I have
x-1/[2x^2-5x+3]
---------------
(x-1)/[(2x-3)(x-1)]

Correct::
Because you cannot divide by zero,
-----
x cannot be 1; x cannot be 3/2
