Answer:

undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

the value of the rational expression x/x2-9 when x = –3

Rational expression is [tex]\frac{x}{x^2-9}[/tex]

To find the value of the rational expression at x=-3 , we plug in -3 for x

[tex]\frac{x}{x^2-9}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{-3}{(-3)^2-9}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{-3}{9-9}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{-3}{0}[/tex]

When the denominator becomes 0 then the expression is undefined
