Problems from Rational functions

Determine the domain of the following functions:

  1. f(x)=xx+3
  2. f(x)=2x4x29
  3. f(x)=2x
See development and solution

Development:

  1. We have a rational function, and therefore we must look at the points where the denominator is zero: x+3=0x=3 Therefore Dom(f)=R{3}.

  2. As in the previous case, we look at the points where the denominator is zero: x29=0x2=9x=±3 Therefore Dom(f)=R{3,3}.

  3. This case is just as the previous ones but obviously the denominator is zero at 0. Therefore, Dom(f)=R{0}.

Solution:

  1. Dom(f)=R{3}
  2. Dom(f)=R{3,3}
  3. Dom(f)=R{0}
