Find domain(s).

OpenStudy (dls):

\[\LARGE y=\frac{x^2-5x+4}{x^2-3x+2}\]

OpenStudy (dls):

\[\LARGE y=\frac{\cancel{(x-1)}(x-4)}{\cancel{(x-1)}(x-2)}\] It is undefined at 4,2 So it should be R-{4,2} ?

Directrix (directrix):

Why is this rational function undefined at x = 4? Just wondering. I think you meant to put another value of x instead of 4. The domain is the set of acceptable values of x.

OpenStudy (dls):

Oops,R-{1,2}?

Directrix (directrix):

The set of Reals excluding x = 1 and 2. Yes, I agree.

OpenStudy (dls):

or just R-{2}?

OpenStudy (dls):

since x-1 factor cancels out

Directrix (directrix):

The x -1 divides out under the condition that x is not equal to one. So, R-{1,2} is your domain. ----------- If you draw the graph of y = (x² - 1) / (x - 1), the graph will be a line with a hole in it at the point (1, 2).

OpenStudy (dls):

I have another doubt.

Directrix (directrix):

What is it?

OpenStudy (dls):

\[\LARGE \sqrt{\log_{10} \frac{3-x}{x}}\]

OpenStudy (dls):

isn't it simply x<3 that is.. {2,1}

Directrix (directrix):

My computer is not loading the math symbols so I am unsure what you wrote. Processing math: 0% --> Lower left of my screen

OpenStudy (dls):

square root of log base 10 fraction(x-3) upon x.

OpenStudy (dls):

It can only accept 2,1 if im correct,ofc im not.
