ANSWER:


((1)/(2),\infty)

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that any logarithm is capable of recieveng numbers that are greater than zero. This way, we'll have the restriction:


2x-1>0

Solving for x,


\begin{gathered} 2x-1>0 \\ \rightarrow2x>1 \\ \\ \Rightarrow x>(1)/(2) \end{gathered}

This way, the domain is:


((1)/(2),\infty)
