What is the domain of f(x) = 1/sqrt x -3? Helpp!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is it\[f(x) = {1 \over \sqrt{x-3}}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then do the same as before... however, exclude the value(s) of x that will make the denominator zero. :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I did do the same as before and I got the answer wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let's see. how did you do it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can not have negative values, it is not a real solution for the  Also, not any values in which make the denominator equal to 0.So , x must be greater than or equal to 0. x is all real numbers greater than 0, but 9.

OpenStudy (kenljw):

If not to use complex then x>3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got 3, infinity

OpenStudy (anonymous):

fter I redid it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@KenLJW is right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can someone show me how they got their answer

OpenStudy (kenljw):

by inspection x<3 negative under the radical therefore complex x=3 denominator is zero therefore undefined
