What can a denominator never be?
0
so, we need to figure what x can't be... the only way to multiply 2 things together to get 0 is if one or both are zero.
so, what x values make our denominator 0?
to figure this out, we need to set (x-1)(x-2)=0
now we split and solve.
so when x is 1 or 2 the function doesnt make sense.
but, x can be every other number and it does, so the answer is
ALL REAL NUMBERS not equal to 1 or 2
0

Remark
You have to read this carefully to know what way to write it.
One way you could write it would be
20 * x = 18 where x is the fraction. Now all you need do is divide.
Divide both sides by 20
20/20 * x = 18/20
But you should reduce this fraction. The way to do that is to factor 18 and 20 into primes.
18: 2 * 3 * 3
20: 2 * 2 *5
Cancel out the Highest common factor or 2.

Answer:
The probability is 28 % ( approx )
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, there are only two possible outcomes in every trails ( residents are in their forties or not ),
So, this is a binomial distribution,
Binomial distribution formula,
Probability of success in x trials,
Where,
p and q are probability of success and failure respectively and n is the total number of trials.
Let X be the event of resident who are in his or her forties.
Here, p = 12% = 0.12,
⇒ q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.12 = 0.88,
n = 9,
Hence, the probability that two or three of the people in the group are in their forties = P(X=2) + P(X=3)
