For this question I need to find numbers for which rational expression is undefined. I believe the answer is 0 but am not sure.
5%2F%28x-5%29
:
an expression is undefined when the denominator = 0.
We want to find out what value of x will make the denominator 0
:
solve for x when the denominator = 0
x - 5 = 0
x = 5
:
Therefore, the expression is undefined when x = 5
:
Make sense??
