Answer:

For those of y'all that don't know how to enter that answer for RSM you would put it in as x<-5, x>7, -5<x<7

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

Domain = {All real values of x EXCEPT x = -5 and x = 7}

Explanation:

This is a rational function given as
y=(6+9x)/(6-|x-1|)

The domain is the set of all real value of x for which the function is defined.

For rational functions, we need to find which value of x makes the denominator equal to 0. We need to exclude those values from the domain.

Now

6 - |x-1| = 0

|x-1| = 6

x- 1 = 6

or

-(x-1) = 6

x = 6+1 = 7

and

-x+1=6

x = 1-6 = -5

So, the x values of -5 and 7 makes this function undefined. So the domain is the set of all real numbers except x = -5 and x = 7
