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.

Consider two circular swimming pools. Pool A has a radius of 48 feet, and Pool B has a diameter of 29.46 meters. Complete the de
Ber [7]

Answer: pool B has a greater circumference.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the circumference if a circle is expressed as

Circumference = 2πr

Where

r represents the radius of the circle.

π is a constant whose value is 3.14

Pool A has a radius of 48 feet.

1 foot ≈ 0.305 meters

48 feet = 48 × 0.305 = 14.64 meters

The circumference of pool A is

2 × 3.14 × 14.64 = 91.94 meters

Pool B has a diameter of 29.46 meters. Radius = diameter/2

Radius of pool B = 29.46/2 = 14.73 meters

The circumference of pool B is

2 × 3.14 × 14.73 = 92.5 meters

Therefore, pool B has a greater circumference.
