Question

Find the domain of f(x)=x-9/x squared-81

Answer 1

$f(x)=\dfrac{x-9}{x^2-81}\\\\\text{The domain:}\\\\x^2-81\neq0\qquad\text{add 81 to both sides}\\\\x^2\neq81\to x\neq\pm\sqrt{81}\\\\x\neq-9\ \wedge\ x\neq9\\\\Answer:\ \boxed{\text{All real numbers except -9 and 9}}\to\boxed{x\in\mathbb{R}-\{-9,\ 9\}}$
