Carmella simplified the following rational expression. (2x ^ 2 + 7x + 3)/(4x + 12) = ((2x + 1)(x + 3))/(4(x + 3)) = ((2x + 1)(x + 3))/(4(x + 3)) = (2x + 1)/4 After simplifying the expression , she stated that there are no restrictions on x since the denominator of her answer is a constant and cannot possibly equal Did Carmella make any mistakes in her problem ? If explain and correct her mistake ( s ) .
