Domain from a Formula
Since the only part that can cause problems is the denominator, we can ignore the \(3x+1\) in the numerator. We just need to figure out where \(2x-7\) is 0, and then our domain will be everything except that number.

How do you find the domain of a function algebraically?
If your function is a fraction, set the denominator equal to 0 and solve. The domain would then be all real numbers except for whatever input makes your denominator equal to 0. For a square root, set whatever is inside the radical to greater than or equal to 0 and solve, since you can’t use any inputs that produce an imaginary number (i.e., the square root of a negative).

Can I find the domain of a function with a calculator?
Yes. You can use a graphing calculator to calculate domain by plotting the function. There are also a variety of domain and range calculators online. Simply input your function to find the domain, which is a set of x-values that will successfully generate y-values.

That is, we can substitute any \(x\)-value into the formula to obtain a unique \(y\)-value. We therefore say that the natural domain of the functions \(y=x+2\), \(y=3x^2-7\), \(y=\sin x\) and \(y=2^x\) is the set of all real numbers, denoted by \(\mathbb{R}\).

In this case, it is a partial function, and the set of real numbers on which the formula can be evaluated to a real number is called the natural domain or domain of definition of f.

Use “U” (meaning "union") to connect parts of the domain that are separated by a gap.' For example, [-1,5) U (5,10]. This means that the domain goes from -1 to 10, inclusive, but that there is a gap in the domain at 5.

technically the domain is part of the definition of a function and you can have different domains with the same functional equation for example we can have: f: R- to R with f(x)=1/x and g: R+ to R with g(x)=1/x so if I tell you h(x)=1/x you have no information about the domain however in applied math people usually just use a functional equation to represent a function and implicitely set the domain as the biggest possible subset within the real numbers so in the case of our example the function h can accept any real number except 0, hence its biggest possible domain is R \ {0} such that: h: R \ {0} to R with h(x)=1/x so the general strategy is to look for problematic values that cause division by zero or similar issues (like square root from negative numbers) and to exclude them consider for example: f(x)=sqrt(1-x2 ) in this case the problematic values are all x such that: 1-x2 <0 iff 1 < x2 iff 1 < |x| so the domain of f is all real numbers except those with an absolute values bigger than 1, which means only values between -1 and 1 are allowed: f: [-1, 1] to R, f(x)=sqrt(1-x2 )

For most polynomials, you determine if there is a point that does not exists. For example, y = x/(x-1), you than see when x =1, you get 1/0 which doesn't exist. For y = tan(x), if you know your trig, this is sin(x)/cos(x), so try to solve for when cosx = 0. When x = pi/2, you get 1/0 again which dies not exist. Over time you will learn the domain of specific functions. For example, y= ln(x), the domain is x >0. This is something you either memorize or once you understand the application of ln(x) you intuitively know the domain.

The domain is then all values of · x except the · x-value of the vertical asymptote, in this case · x · = 1. You write this mathematically · You find the range · R · f by finding the horizontal asymptote. That is to say, the range is all real numbers except the horizontal asymptote. Since · f describes a hyperbola (as you can see from the function), you find the horizontal asymptote using the formula ·

Domain Range and Codomain Of A Function
August 17, 2022 - An interesting point about the range and codomain is that “it is possible to restrict the range (i.e. the output of a function) by redefining the codomain of that function”. For example, the codomain of f(x) must be the set of all positive integers or negative real numbers and so on. Here, the output of the function must be a positive integer and the domain will also be restricted accordingly in this case.
