Questions: Consider the following rational expression.
8y^3 - 27 / 2y - 3
Determine what value(s), if any, of the variable must be excluded.
Transcript text: Consider the following rational expression.
\[
\frac{8 y^{3}-27}{2 y-3}
\]
Step 2 of 2: Determine what value(s), if any, of the variable must be excluded.
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Identify the Denominator
The rational expression given is
\[
\frac{8 y^{3}-27}{2 y-3}
\]
To determine the values that must be excluded from the domain, we focus on the denominator, which is
\[
2y - 3
\]
Step 2: Set the Denominator to Zero
We need to find the value of \( y \) that makes the denominator equal to zero:
\[
2y - 3 = 0
\]
Step 3: Solve for \( y \)
Solving the equation:
\[
2y = 3 \implies y = \frac{3}{2}
\]
Final Answer
The value that must be excluded from the domain is
