What are the values of x for which the denominator is equal to zero for y=(x+3)/(x^2+4x)

Sagot :

Answer:

  -4, 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The denominator is x^2+4x. This is zero when ...

  x^2 +4x = 0

  x(x +4) = 0

The zero product rule tells you the product is zero when the factors are zero.

  x = 0

  x +4 = 0   ⇒   x = -4

The denominator is zero for x=0 and x=-4.
