I need help to finish a problem: f(x)=ln(2x) and g(x)=e^x. What is the domain for the functions f(g(x)) and g(f(x))? I received the answers f(g(x))=ln2+x g(f(x))=2x How do I know what the domain is?

OpenStudy (jiteshmeghwal9):

The domain should be R-{----} where --- is space for number which doesn't give any real value as a result or which makes the function undefined

OpenStudy (jiteshmeghwal9):

F(G(x)) = ln2+x For all real values of x the result is a real number So domain is R

OpenStudy (jiteshmeghwal9):

Similarly find for G(f(x))

OpenStudy (johnw):

I´m sorry, I don´t follow you... :)

OpenStudy (jiteshmeghwal9):

The domain of any function is the set of real numbers - the set of those numbers which don't satisfies the function

OpenStudy (saksh1998):

domain is the set of points where a given function is defined i8.e for every value of real x there exists a real value of the function since your function does not give any imaginary values for any value of x therefore the domain for both the function is xbelongs to R for further clarity domain of function 1/x is R-{0} as at 0 the function gives an imaginary value or is not defined please fan and medal

OpenStudy (saksh1998):

had the function been ln2x then the domain would have been x>0 as log of negative numbers is not defined
