Given:


((x+3)(x+6))/(x+7)

Required:

We need to find the value of x that makes the given expression is undefined.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that a rational expression is undefined when the denominator is equal to zero.

The denominator of the given expression is x+7.

Equate it to zero.


x+7=0

Subtract 7 from both sides of the equation.


x+7-7=0-7
x=-7

Final answer:


x=-7
