What is the domain of: 1/x^2-2x
---------
Factor:
= 1/[(x(x-2)]
----
The denominator cnnot be zero:
x(x-2) = 0

--------------------------
Domain: All Real Numbers except x = 0 and x = 2

The only issue is divide by 0, so whole real line with 0 removed.
If the problem is really 1%2F%28x%5E2-2x%29 then another point needs to be removed:
x%5E2-2x=0
Divide by x (since x=0 is already out)
x -2 = 0
x = 2 is also out.
