b. The number of excluded values of a rational expression cannot exceed the degree of the denominator.
c. The number of excluded values of a rational expression cannot exceed the sum of the degrees of the numerator and denominator.
d. The number of excluded values of a rational expression cannot exceed the difference in the degrees of the numerator and denominator.
Answer: b. The number of excluded values of a rational expression cannot exceed the degree of the denominator.
Step-by-step explanation:
A rational expression is a fraction in which the numerator and the denominator are polynomials. The excluded values of a rational number are that values which make denominator zero.They are basically the zeroes of the polynomial of denominator.So,the number of excluded values can't exceed the degree of the denominator.
Here is a rational expression
where the denominator is
⇒x=-2,+2 are zero of polynomial
i.e. -2 and 2 are the excluded values for the whole rational expression.
Which statement best describes the excluded values of a rational expression?
B is the correct answer - The number of excluded values of a rational expression cannot exceed the degree of the denominator.
A rational expression is denoted in form; where 'p' is the numerator and 'q' is the denominator. The numerator and denominators can be polynomials. The denominator cannot be zero in general, as it makes the fraction value undefined.

1. How would you write 77.7% as a decimal? Set that decimal equal
to x. What digit or digits repeat?
2. Multiply each side of the equation by a power of 10 to get the
repeating digit(s) to the left of the decimal point. Since you only
need to move one place, multiply each side by 10.
3. Subtract the equation in Exercise 1 from the equation in Exercise 2.
Then simplify.
4. Divide each side of the equation by 9 to solve for x. What fraction is
equal to x? Show your work.

Answer:
FEEL FREE TO CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG! (in the comments)
1. 0.777, the thousandths place value repeats
2. 7.77
3. x = 0.60 (0.0603729)
4.
5.
6. 83%
-did my best-
Step-by-step explanation:
Raul made 7/9 of his shots in yesterday's basketball game and Jenny's lacrosse team won 83/100 of their games this season.
To answer the question about what fraction of shots Raul made, we need to convert the percentage into a decimal and then a fraction. To first convert 77.7% into a decimal, we move the decimal point two places to the left, getting 0.777.
Now, to put this into fraction form, knowing that the decimal 0.777 is repeating, we let x = 0.777. Multiply each side by 10 to get 10x = 7.777. Subtracting the first equation from this gives us 9x = 7, hence x = 7/9. So, the fraction of shots Raul made is 7/9.
For Jenny's lacrosse team, the winning percentage is 0.83. It’s a non-repeating decimal so it's straightforward to convert this into a fraction. To convert the decimal to a fraction, we consider the numbers after the decimal point. Since there are two digits (.83), we write it as 83/100. But, it can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common factor (GCF), which is 1 in this case. So, the fraction of games Jenny's team won is 83/100.
