What is the solution of (frac{x – 5}{x + 3}
- A.
-3 - B.
x 1 - C.
-3 - D.
x 5
Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation
Consider the range -3
= { -2, -1, 0}, for instance
When x = -2,
(frac{-2 – 5}{-2 + 3}
(frac{-7}{1}
When x = -1,
(frac{-1 – 5}{-1 + 3}
(frac{-6}{2}
= -3
When x = 0,
(frac{0 – 5}{0 + 3}
(frac{- 5}{3}
Hence -3 There is an explanation video available below.
