Answer:

option a is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

put the value of x in each expression as x = -2

you'll see that in option a the expression becomes

[tex] \frac{x - 3}{ {x}^{2} - 4} = \frac{ - 2 - 3}{ {( - 2)}^{2} - 4} \\ = \frac{ - 5}{4 - 4} \\ = \frac{ - 5}{0} [/tex]

which is not defined. hence -2 is excluded value
