domain and range of g(x) = 2/x-1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it \[g(x)=\frac{2}{x-1}\]?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

[1,infinity) is the domain set x-1 = 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there is a asymptote

OpenStudy (anonymous):

domain unless otherwise specified would be all numbers except for the value of \(x\) which would make the denominator equal to zero if you try to divide by zero you will have a stroke and explode

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in other words, it is all real numbers except \(x=1\) as for the range, a fraction is only zero if the numerator is since the numerator here is \(2\) the function is never zero and the range is all real numbers except \(0\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the range is all real #s because the line touches 1 but not zero correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(-infinity,0) U (0, infinity) range

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but the line doesnt touch zero...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah thats why you put ")" if it is touching the point then you put "]"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok im trying to get back into the groove of things lol sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hey no worry! here to help as much as i can haha
