the domain for is the intersection of the domains of and , except for those numbers such as that ;
that is ...-> {x|g(x) to 0}

Absolutely not. Consider two polynomial functions,
and
with real coefficients. The domain of each is all real numbers. The intersection of these two domains is itself the set of all real numbers. However the domain of
excludes any real value
such that
