Answer:

Third answer.

Explanation:

To simplify, we can factor 'x' from the equation, giving us:


(x(1))/(x(4 + x)) = (1)/(x+4)

However, we must put a domain restriction to ensure that the denominator will not equal 0. This means that 'x+ 4' cannot equal zero. Therefore, x ≠ -4.

The third answer is correct.
