When finding when a fraction is undefined, it doesn&#8217;t matter what the top of the fraction is. A fraction is undefined when the bottom is 0. This is because it&#8217;s impossible to divide by 0. Therefore, you have to find when 3x &#8211; 12 = 0. This is just a simple algebra problem. 3x &#8211; 12 = 0 3x = 12 x = 4 The fraction is undefined when x = 4 2. Same thing as the last one. You only have to pay attention to the bottom of the fraction. x\u00b2 + x &#8211; 42 = 0 x\u00b2 &#8211; 6x + 7x &#8211; 42 = 0 x(x-6) + 7(x-6) = 0 (x+7)(x-6) = 0 When either of these equals 0, then the equation is true because they are multiplied. Therefore, when x = -7 or when x = 6 the equation is true.\n<p>The fraction is undefined when x is either of these values.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>1. it&#8217;d be (5x)\/(3x-12) you cannot divide by zeros so simply set the denominator equal to zero and solve. 3x-12=0 3x=12 x=4 2.(x+5)\/(x^2+x-42) do the same as the last problem x^2+x-42=0 factor (x+7)(x-6) x+7=0 x-6=0 x=-7 x=6\n<p>so your answers are 6 and -7<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Simply the denominator should be different from zero in the first case x is different from 4 in the second (X-6)(x+7)is different from zero, so x is different from 6 and -7<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p id=\"rop\"><small>Originally posted 2013-11-09 21:09:56. <\/small><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1.
