Inputing Values into a Function - Examples, Exercises and Solutions

To solve this problem, we will determine the domain, or field of application, of the equation $\frac{6}{x+5} = 1$.

Step-by-step solution:

• Step 1: Identify the denominator. In the given equation, the denominator is $x+5$.
• Step 2: Determine when the denominator is zero. Solve for $x$ by setting $x+5 = 0$.
• Step 3: Solve the equation: $x+5 = 0$ gives $x = -5$.
• Step 4: Exclude this value from the domain. The domain is all real numbers except $x = -5$.

Therefore, the field of application of the equation is all real numbers except where $x = -5$.

Thus, the domain is $x \neq -5$.

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps to find the domain:

• Step 1: Recognize that the expression $\frac{x+y:3}{2x+6}=4$ involves a fraction. The denominator $2x + 6$ must not be zero, as division by zero is undefined.
• Step 2: Set the denominator equal to zero and solve for $x$ to find the values that must be excluded: $2x + 6 = 0$.
• Step 3: Solve $2x + 6 = 0$:
• $2x + 6 = 0$
• $2x = -6$
• $x = -3$
• Step 4: Conclude that the domain of the function excludes $x = -3$, meaning $x \neq -3$.

Thus, the domain of the given expression is all real numbers except $x = -3$. This translates to:

$x\operatorname{\ne}-3$

To determine the field of application of the equation $\frac{3x:4}{y+6}=6$, we must identify values of $y$ for which the equation is defined.

• The denominator of the given expression is $y + 6$. In order for the expression to be defined, the denominator cannot be zero.
• This leads us to solve the equation $y + 6 = 0$.
• Solving $y + 6 = 0$ gives us $y = -6$.
• This means $y = -6$ would make the denominator zero, thus the expression would be undefined for this value.

Therefore, the field of application, or the domain of the equation, is all real numbers except $y = -6$.

We must conclude that $y \neq -6$.

Comparing with the provided choices, the correct answer is choice 3: $y \neq -6$.

To determine the domain of the function $\frac{5-x}{2-x}$, we need to identify and exclude any values of $x$ that make the function undefined. This occurs when the denominator equals zero.

• Step 1: Set the denominator equal to zero:
  $2-x = 0$
• Step 2: Solve for $x$:
  Adding $x$ to both sides gives $2 = x$. Hence, $x = 2$.

This means that the function is undefined when $x = 2$. Therefore, the domain of the function consists of all real numbers except $x = 2$.

Thus, the domain is: $x \ne 2$.

The correct answer choice is:

Yes, $x\ne2$

To determine the domain of the function $\frac{49 + 2x}{x + 4}$, we need to focus on avoiding division by zero, which occurs when the denominator is zero.

Let's identify the denominator of the function:

• The denominator is $x + 4$.

Next, we set the denominator equal to zero and solve for $x$:

• $x + 4 = 0$
• Subtract 4 from both sides: $x = -4$

This calculation shows that the function is undefined when $x = -4$. Thus, the domain of the function is all real numbers except $x = -4$.

Therefore, the domain of the function is $x \neq -4$.

In terms of the provided choices, this corresponds to choice 4:

Yes, $x \ne -4$
