Math Problem Statement
Solution
We need to determine for which values of the given mathematical expression is defined. The expression involves square roots, cube roots, and a fifth root, so we'll need to analyze each part of the expression to ensure that it is mathematically valid.
Expression:
[ 2\sqrt{3x^2 - 7x + 4} + \sqrt[3]{\frac{x - 2}{x + 2}} - \frac{x}{\sqrt[5]{|x + 2|} - 3} ]
1. First term:
The square root function is only defined for non-negative values. Therefore, we need to solve the inequality: We will solve this quadratic inequality.
2. Second term:
A cube root is defined for all real numbers, but we need to ensure that the denominator is not zero. Hence, we require:
3. Third term:
For the expression inside the denominator, we need to ensure the fifth root is defined, and we also need to make sure the denominator does not equal zero: [ \sqrt[5]{|x + 2|} - 3 \neq 0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad \sqrt[5]{|x + 2|} \neq 3 ] This leads to:
Summary of Conditions:
