Math Problem Statement
Interval notation for (5)/(x-3)
Solution
To express the domain of the function in interval notation, we need to determine the set of all -values for which the function is defined.
The function is undefined when the denominator equals zero. This occurs when . Therefore, the function is defined for all real numbers except .
The domain in interval notation is:
This notation means that can be any real number except 3.
