Find the Domain x^2+2x+5=0
Problem
Solution
Identify the type of expression provided. The expression
x2+2*x+5 is a polynomial function.Recall the definition of a domain for polynomial functions. Polynomials are defined for all real numbers because there are no denominators that could be zero and no even-indexed roots of negative numbers.
Determine the domain. Since there are no restrictions on the input
x for the expressionx2+2*x+5 the domain consists of all real numbers.Note the context of the equation. While the equation
x2+2*x+5=0 asks for specific values ofx that satisfy the equality (the roots), the domain of the functionƒ(x)=x2+2*x+5 refers to the set of all possible input values.
