Answer:

all real numbers except x=2

Explanation:

We assume you intend c(x) = 5/(x-2), rather than c(x) = (5/x) -2 as written.

__

The domain of c(x) is real numbers, excluding 2. Multiplying c(x) by d(x) doesn't change that.

The domain of (cd)(x) = c(x)×d(x) = 5(x+3)/(x-2) is "all real numbers except 2".

__

2 is excluded because c(x) is undefined for that value.
