Question

What is the value of the rational expression below when x is equal to 4? x-12/x-8

Answer 1

Answer:

When x=4 we get the value of the given expression is

$\frac{x-12}{x-8}=2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given rational expression is $\frac{x-12}{x-8}$

To find the value of the given rational expression $\frac{x-12}{x-8}$

when x is equal to 4 :

That is the value of the given rational expression $\frac{x-12}{x-8}$

when x=4 :

$\frac{x-12}{x-8}$

Put x=4 in the above rational expression we get

$\frac{4-12}{4-8}$

$=\frac{-8}{-4}$

$=\frac{8}{4}$

$=2$

Therefore  when x=4 we get the value of the given expression is

$\frac{x-12}{x-8}=2$
