As , we can plug that into and simplify to get . However, we have a restriction on x such that if we have an undefined function. We can use this to our advantage. Plugging that value for x into the simplified function yields , as the left hand side simplifies and the right hand side is simply the value we have chosen. This means that , which is answer choice A.
