Question 54759: Determine the value/s of the variable where the expression is undefined :
-16 / j-3
Solve by factoring : x^2+3x+2
Factor Completely: 3x^3-3x^2-6x Answer by funmath(2933) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Determine the value/s of the variable where the expression is undefined :
Fractions are undefined when their denominators=0.
j-3=0
j-3+3=0+3
j=3 Makes the rational expression undefined.
:
Solve by factoring : x^2+3x+2
This is in form:
a=1, b=3, c=2
We need two numbers that multiply together to give you c, but add together to give you b.
x*x=x^2
(x___)(x___)
1*2=2(c) and 1+2=3(b)
(x+1)(x+2)
:
Factor Completely: 3x^3-3x^2-6x
First factor out the GCF (greatest common factor) a=1, b=-1, c=-2
1*-2=-2(c) and 1+(-2)=-1 (b)
Happy Calculating!!!
