Math

explain when is a rational expression restricted.

Basically, domain is all real numbers that cause an not allowed
some things that aren't allowed are dividing by zero and taking the square root of a number less than zero, restrict all values that make thos things hapen

exapmle

a/b, b can not be zero

(3+x)/(4-x)
x cannot be  4 since that would be dividing by zero

another example
√(x-3)
x cannot be less than 3 because that would make a sqrt of a negative

basiccally restrictions are not allowed becasue we don't understnad what happens when we break them

Definitely
