Answer:
x=12 makes (X-12)/(x-8) equal to zero
x=8 makes (X-12)/(x-8) undefined
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-12)/(x-8) = 0
The first step is to multiply each side by x-8
(x-8) *(x-12)/(x-8) = 0 * (x-8)
This cancels the denominator. x≠ 8 because the denominator would equal 0 and then it becomes undefined.
x-12 = 0
Add 12 to each side
x-12+12 = 0+12
x = 12
