Math Problem Statement
Solution
The problem asks to determine the domain of the functions and , and perform operations on them such as , , , and , followed by determining the domain for each of these operations.
Given:
We are tasked with determining the domain of .
Step 1: Add the functions and
Step 2: Find the domain of
Since both and are linear functions (polynomials), their domains are all real numbers. Adding two polynomials doesn't introduce any restrictions (like division by zero or square roots of negative numbers), so the domain of is also all real numbers, denoted as .
Answer:
The domain of is:
The correct choice here would be option B.
Would you like to go over the domains for other operations like , , and ?
Here are 5 relative questions for practice:
- What is the domain of and why?
- How do you determine the domain of ?
- What are the restrictions on the domain for ?
- How does the degree of polynomials affect their domains?
- How do we handle domain restrictions when combining functions?
Tip: When finding the domain of a quotient , check that the denominator does not equal zero, as division by zero is undefined.

f(x) + g(x) = (4x - 9) + (x - 3)
f(x) - g(x) = (4x - 9) - (x - 3)
f(x) * g(x) = (4x - 9) * (x - 3)
f(x) / g(x) = (4x - 9) / (x - 3)
Theorems
The domain of a function refers to the set of all possible input values (x-values) for which the function is defined.
For the function f/g, g(x) ≠ 0 to avoid division by zero.
