For what values of $x$ is $$\frac{x^2 + x + 3}{2x^2 + x - 6} \ge 0?$$ note: be thorough and explain why all points in your answe

To solve the inequality $\frac{x^2+x+3}{2x^2+x-6}\ge \:0$

$\mathrm{Factor\:the\:left\:hand\:side\:}\frac{x^2+x+3}{2x^2+x-6}:$

The numerator $x^2+x+3$ is not factorizable.

so factor the denominator $2x^2+x-6$ :

$2x^2+x-6=\left(2x^2-3x\right)+\left(4x-6\right)=x\left(2x-3\right)+2\left(2x-3\right)\\ \mathrm{Factor\:out\:}x\mathrm{\:from\:}2x^2-3x\mathrm{:\quad }x\left(2x-3\right)\\ \mathrm{Factor\:out\:}2\mathrm{\:from\:}4x-6\mathrm{:\quad }2\left(2x-3\right)\\$
