Answer:

Hence, the values of x for which the expression is not defined is equal to 1 or -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find for which values of x is the rational expression:

\dfrac{x+5}{3x^2-3} is undefined.

We know that a rational expression is undefined when the denominator term is equal to zero.

Hence, we could represent the algebraic expression as:

\dfrac{x+5}{3x^2-3}=\dfrac{x+5}{3(x^2-1)}\\\\\dfrac{x+5}{3x^2-3}=\dfrac{x+5}{3(x-1)(x+1)}

Hence, clearly from the expression we could observe that:

the expression is not defined when x=1 or x=-1.

( since the denominator will be zero if x receives any of the above two values or both)

Hence, the values of x for which the expression is not defined is equal to 1 or -1.

Which choices are equivalent to the exponential expression below? Check all that apply. (4/5)^3​
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

A, C, D

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember: Exponents are simply repeated multiplication.

The exponent determines how many times to multiply the base number by itself.

(\frac{4}{5} )^3=\frac{4}{5} *\frac{4}{5} *\frac{4}{5} =\frac{64}{25}

Option 'A' and 'C' apply.

Option D applies because:

\frac{4^3}{5^3} =\frac{64}{125}
