Under what conditions is this expression undefined?
A rational expression is undefined if the denominator
equals zero. To find out when this expression is
undefined, completely factor the denominator.
Answer: The values that would make the denominator
equal to 0 are –7, 3, and –3. So the expression is
undefined at y = –7, y = 3, and y = –3. These values are
called excluded values.

Answer:
b. Under what conditions is this expression

undefined?
C 3, –5
D 5, 1, –3
Read the Test Item
You want to determine which values of p make the
denominator equal to 0.
Solve the Test Item
Look at the possible answers. Notice that the p term
and the constant term are both negative, so there will
be one positive solution and one negative solution.
Therefore, you can eliminate choices A and D. Factor
the denominator.

Space The apparent length of an object is inversely
proportional to one’s distance from the object. Earth
is about 93 million miles from the Sun and Venus is
about 67 million miles away. How much larger would
the diameter of the Sun appear on Venus than on
Earth?
Explore
You know that the apparent diameter of the
Sun varies inversely with the distance from
the Sun. You also know the distance from
the Sun to Venus and from the Sun to Earth.
You want to determine how much larger the
diameter of the Sun appears on Venus than
on Earth.
Plan
Let the apparent diameter of the Sun from
Earth equal 1 unit and the apparent diameter
of the Sun from Venus equal v. Then use a
proportion that relates the values.
Solve
Substitution
Cross multiply.
Divide each
side by 67
million miles.
Simplify.
Answer:
From Venus, the diameter of the Sun will
appear about 1.39 times as large as it
appears from Earth.
Examine
Since the distance between the Sun and
Earth is between 1 and 2 times the distance
between the Sun and Venus, the answer
seems reasonable.
Space Mars is
about 142.5 million
miles from the Sun
and Earth is about
93 million miles away. How much smaller would the
diameter of the Sun appear on Mars than on Earth?
Answer: about 0.65 of the size
