Answer:
x ≠ 3
Step-by-step explanation:
In any case, the domain is restricted to values of the variable for which the function is defined. The value 1/0 is not defined, so the variable cannot allow the denominator to be zero. The denominator x-3 will be zero for x=3, so that value of the variable cannot be in the domain.
The domain is all real numbers except x=3.

<em>Additional comments</em>
It is useful to become familiar with the domains of different functions. As we saw above, the reciprocal of 0 is undefined. The square root of a negative number is undefined. The log of a non-positive number is undefined. Trig functions are defined everywhere, but their inverse functions are not. Polynomial functions are defined everywhere, but ratios of polynomials have the same restriction on denominators that we see above.
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
What is the largest of 3 consecutive integers such that the sum of the first and third is equal to three times the second?
3 consecutive angles
= x, x + 1, x + 2
We are told in the question that:
the sum of the first and third is equal to three times the second
a + c = 3b
x + x + 2 = 3(x + 1)
2x + 2 = 3x + 3
3x - 2x = 2 - 3
x = -1
The largest of the three numbers is the third number
= x + 2
x = -1
x + 2 = -1 + 2
The third and largest number is 1
Our answer is
Our greatest common factor, or GCF, is
, so when we factor is out, our divide each term by
, we get our answer. To check this, we can multiply the
back across the parenthesis and see if we get the same result as our initial question.
Hope this helped! :))
