What is the excluded value of x / x^2 +2x -3

x = - 3 and x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rational expression

The denominator of the expression cannot be zero as this would make the expression undefined. Equating the denominator to zero and solving gives the values that x cannot be, that is

x² + 2x - 3 = 0 ← in standard form

(x + 3)(x - 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3

x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1

Thus x = 1 and x = - 3 are both excluded values
