Recall

Simplifying algebraic fractions — objective 1

Maths4U Original · Short practice

Let \(\displaystyle F(x)=\frac{x^{2} - 36}{x - 6}\), on its original real domain.

Find the excluded input of the original expression.

Enter one exact number or fraction unless the question specifies rounding. If it asks for a coefficient of π, enter that coefficient only. Give full reasoning separately for written problems.
