1. Problem Description

The problem asks for the value of xx that makes the expression 42xx+1\frac{4-2x}{x+1} undefined. A rational expression is undefined when the denominator is equal to zero.

2. Solution Steps

To find the value of xx that makes the expression undefined, we need to find the value of xx that makes the denominator equal to zero.
x+1=0x + 1 = 0
Subtract 1 from both sides:
x+11=01x + 1 - 1 = 0 - 1
x=1x = -1

3. Final Answer

The value of xx that makes the expression undefined is 1-1.
The answer is B.
