The correct Answer is:
To solve the inequality \(\frac{x^2}{x-3} > 0\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the critical points The critical points occur when the numerator or the denominator is zero. - The numerator \(x^2 = 0\) gives us \(x = 0\). - The denominator \(x - 3 = 0\) gives us \(x = 3\). ### Step 2: Determine the intervals The critical points divide the number line into intervals. We will consider the intervals: 1. \( (-\infty, 0) \) 2. \( (0, 3) \) 3. \( (3, \infty) \) ### Step 3: Test each interval We will test a point from each interval to determine where the inequality holds. 1. **Interval \( (-\infty, 0) \)**: Choose \(x = -1\) \[ \frac{(-1)^2}{-1 - 3} = \frac{1}{-4} < 0 \quad \text{(not a solution)} \] 2. **Interval \( (0, 3) \)**: Choose \(x = 1\) \[ \frac{1^2}{1 - 3} = \frac{1}{-2} < 0 \quad \text{(not a solution)} \] 3. **Interval \( (3, \infty) \)**: Choose \(x = 4\) \[ \frac{4^2}{4 - 3} = \frac{16}{1} > 0 \quad \text{(solution)} \] ### Step 4: Consider the critical points - At \(x = 0\), \(\frac{0^2}{0 - 3} = 0\) (not included in the solution set since we need \(> 0\)). - At \(x = 3\), the expression is undefined (not included in the solution set). ### Step 5: Write the solution set The solution set is \(x > 3\). Thus, the final answer is: \[ \text{Solution set: } (3, \infty) \] ---
