Sally found that a solution of x = 2 was extraneous for her function. What would be a possible denominator in Sally's function? 4x + 8; 2x + 12; x^2 - 4; x^2 - 16

Respuesta :

[tex]x^2-4[/tex] because for [tex]x=2[/tex] it would be equal 0.

Answer:

[tex]4x+8\text{and}x^2-4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Extraneous is the point where the solution of a function exists and it gives the value  of denominator  zero

In case of [tex]f(x)=4x+8=0[/tex]

can be the denominator in sally's function.

In case of [tex]f(x)=2(-2)+12=8[/tex] not the possible denominator because we are not getting zero at this point.

In case of [tex]f(x)=(-2)^2-4=0[/tex] is the possible denominator

in case of [tex]f(x)=x^2-16=(-2)^2-16=-12[/tex] is the not the possible denominator.
