What is the domain of the function below?
Explanation
The denomiator factors out to:
The denominator becomes zero when . But the function can exist at any other value.
What is the domain of the function below?
Explanation
The denomiator factors out to:
The denominator becomes zero when . But the function can exist at any other value.
Find the domain of the function.
Explanation
Simplify:
Even though the cancels out from the numerator and denominator, there is still a hole where the function discontinues at
. The function also does not exist at
, where the denominator becomes
.
Evaluate the following function when
Explanation
Evaluate the following function when
To evaluate this function, simply plug-in 6 for t and simplify:
So our answer is:
Find the domain of the function.

Evaluate the following function when
Explanation
Evaluate the following function when
To evaluate this function, simply plug-in 6 for t and simplify:
So our answer is:
Find the domain of the function:
Explanation
The square cannot house any negative term or can the denominator be zero. So the lower limit is since
cannot be
, but any value greater than it is ok. And the upper limit is infinity.
Find the value of the following function when
The function is undefined at
Explanation
Find the value of the following function when
To evaluate this function, plug in 2 for x everywhere it arises and simplify:
So our answer must be undefined, because we cannot divide by
