Direct substitution
example:
Dividing out
example:
direct substitution would not work here because when you but -3 in for x the denominator will equal zero.
to use dividing out you would first factor
(x+3) will cancel out
now use Direct Substitution
Rationalizing
example:
if you use direct substitution...
first you have to rationalize the sqrt
now use direct substitution
