What is the domain of f(x) = log2(x + 3) + 2?
Solution:
The domain of the function given in the problem statement implies the value which the variable x can take:
For f(x) to be defined (x + 3) > 0
x > -3
Therefore the domain of function f(x) is (-3, ∞), {x/ x > -3}
Another function for which the domain can be ascertained is: f(x) = log(x +3)/(x2 + 3x + 2)
For f(x) to be defined (x + 3) > 0
Which implies x > -3
Also x2 + 3x + 2 = (x + 1)(x + 2)
And again for f(x) to be defined (x + 1)(x + 2) ≠ 0
Which implies x ≠ -domain of he 1 and x ≠ -2,
Therefore the function f(x) is {-3, ∞} - {-1, -2}
What is the domain of f(x) = log2(x + 3) + 2?
Summary:
The domain of f(x) = log2(x + 3) + 2 is (-3, ∞}, {x/ x > -3}
