Question 638423: How would I find the domain of y = 3rd root (x - 6) / square root (x^2 - x - 30) ?
Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! find the domain of y = 3rd root (x - 6) / square root (x^2 - x - 30) ?
------
y = (cbrt(x-6))/(sqrt[(x-6)(x+5)]
----
The denominator cannot be zero and (x-6)(x+5) cannot be negative.
------------------------------
Solve (x-6)(x+5) > 0
Draw a number line.
Plot x = -5 and x = 6
---
Find the solution interval for x-values.
If x < -5 the product is > 0
If -5< x <6 the product is < 0
If x > 6 the product is > 0
----
So the domain is All Real Numbers in (-oo,-5)U(6,+oo)
