Find the Domain
Problem
Solution
Identify the logarithmic terms in the equation. For a logarithm
(log_b)(g(x)) to be defined, the argumentg(x) must be strictly greater than zero.Analyze the first two terms
(log_5)(x) The argument isx which requiresx>0 Analyze the third term
(log_5)(x6) The argument isx6 Forx6>0 x can be any real number except0 Determine the intersection of all conditions. The condition
x>0 is more restrictive thanx≠0 Express the domain in interval notation based on the requirement that
x must be positive.
