Question 88307: I have a question I need help with it reads
Find the values of x for which the rational expression
x-5
-------
x2-16 is undefined Found 2 solutions by stanbon, tutor_paul:Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! When is
(x-5) / (x^2 - 16)
undefined?
-----------------------
It is undefined when the denominator equals zero.
When is that?
x^2-16 = 0 when x = 4 or x = -4.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! The expression would be undefined if you had a zero in the denominator.
Assuming that the expression is:
There are 2 values of x which result in a zero denominator...
4 and -4
Good Luck,
