%286%29%2F%282n%2B4%29 Start with the given expression


2n%2B4=0 Set the denominator equal to zero. Remember, dividing by 0 is undefined.


2n=0-4Subtract 4 from both sides


2n=-4 Combine like terms on the right side


n=%28-4%29%2F%282%29 Divide both sides by 2 to isolate n



n=-2 Divide


So if n=-2, then the expression %286%29%2F%282n%2B4%29 is undefined.
