Find the domain of the function. If the domain can be specified by only one interval, use (NONE, NONE) for the second interval.
g(x) = sqrt(x)/(7 x^2 + 6 x - 1)
thanks!

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
g(x) = sqrt(x)/(7 x^2 + 6 x - 1)
7x^2+6x-1
=(7x^2+7x-x-1)
=7x(x+1)-(x+1)
=(7x-1)(x+1)
.
x cannot be less than zero because then the denominator would not be a real number.
x cannot equal 1/7 because there would be a division by zero error.
.
x[0, 1/7)U(1/7, infinity)
.
