Answer:

When x=4 we get the value of the given expression is


(x-12)/(x-8)=2

Explanation:

Given rational expression is
(x-12)/(x-8)

To find the value of the given rational expression
(x-12)/(x-8)

when x is equal to 4 :

That is the value of the given rational expression
(x-12)/(x-8)

when x=4 :


(x-12)/(x-8)

Put x=4 in the above rational expression we get


(4-12)/(4-8)


=(-8)/(-4)


=(8)/(4)


=2

Therefore when x=4 we get the value of the given expression is


(x-12)/(x-8)=2
