Misc 3 Find the domain of the function "f" (x) = (" " š‘„2 + 2š‘„ + 1)/(š‘„2 āˆ’ 8š‘„ + 12) "f" (x) = (" " x2 + 2x +1)/(x2 āˆ’ 8x + 12) = (" " (x +1)2)/(x2 āˆ’2x āˆ’6š‘„ +12) = ((x + 1)2)/(š‘„(x āˆ’2) āˆ’ 6(š‘„ āˆ’2)) = (" " (x + 1)2)/((š‘„ āˆ’ 6)(x āˆ’2) ) In real numbers , the denominator cannot be zero Hence (x – 6) (x – 2) ≠ 0 ⇒ x ≠ 6 and x ≠ 2 Hence the domain of function will be all real numbers except 2 & 6 Hence, the Domain = R – {2, 6}
