Answer to Problem 36AYU
a. The domain of is
i.e., the domain of the composition is all real numbers with the exclusion of and .
Explanation of Solution
Given:
;
Calculation:
We know the composite function of and is defined as
When working with rational functions, domain elements must not create division by zero.
1. Any not in the domain of must be excluded.
2. Any for which is not in the domain of must be excluded.
So, we know that the domain of cannot contain and the domain of cannot contain 0.
For this composition , shows us that would not be an acceptable domain element, since it creates a zero denominator, setting , .
Also exclude from the domain of .
The domain of is

Answer to Problem 36AYU
b. The domain of
i.e., the domain of the composition is all real numbers with the exclusion of .
Because, this function puts no additional restrictions on the domain, so the composite domain is .
Explanation of Solution
Given:
;
Calculation:
We know the composite function of and is defined as
Also
The domain of and the domain of are the set of all real numbers.
Because the domains of both and are the set of all real numbers, the domain of is the set of all real numbers.
When working with rational functions, domain elements must not create division by zero.
1. Any not in the domain of must be excluded.
2. Any for which is not in the domain of must be excluded.
So, we know that the domain of cannot contain and the domain of cannot contain 0.
For this composition . shows us that the domain of is the set of all real numbers.
The domain of is . this function puts no additional restrictions on the domain, so the composite domain is .

Answer to Problem 36AYU
d. The domain of is
i.e., the domain of the composition is all real numbers with the exclusion of 0.
Because, this function puts no additional restrictions on the domain, so the composite domain is .
