Question

How do you simplify and find the excluded values of `8/(x+2)`?

Answer 1

`"already in simplest form"`

Explanation:

`8/(x+2)` is in simplest form. There are no `color(blue)"common factors"` on the numerator/denominator.

The excluded value is x = 2 as this would result in the denominator being zero which would make the function undefined.
