You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The domain of a function are all allowable values for x.
\n" ); document.write( "The only values of x that WOULDN'T be allowed here are those which make the denominator go to zero...so we set it equal to zero and solve it...
\n" ); document.write( "So
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2+-+10x+%2B+21+=+0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x+-+7%29%28x+-+3%29+=+0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+7+or+x+=+3\"
\n" ); document.write( "Thus the domain is all real numbers except x cannot be 3 or 7.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
