Question

Which functions domain consists of all real numbers except -2?

Answer 1

Answer:

option (a) f(x)= 1/x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) f(x) = 1/ x+2

To find the restriction for domain , we set the denominator =0  and solve for x

x+2 =0, so x=-2

When x=-2  then denominator becomes 0 that is undefined.

So, domain is all real numbers except -2

(b) f(x)= 2x

In this function, there is no denominator or square root or log function

so there is no restriction for x, hence domain is all real numbers

(c) f(x) = 2x-2

In this function, there is no denominator or square root or log function

so there is no restriction for x, hence domain is all real numbers

f(x) = 1/ sqrt(x+2)

if we have square root in the denominator then we set the denominator >0 and solve for x. because square root of negative values are undefined

x+2>0, x>-2

Hence domain is all real numbers that are greater than -2
