STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are finding the domain of each function, which is the set of all possible input values (x-values) that will output real numbers. . The functions are real-valued functions.

STEP 2

For the function f(x)=x2+2f(x)=x^{2}+2, the domain is all real numbers because for any real number x, x2+2x^{2}+2 will be a real number.
Domainoff(x)=(,)Domain\, of\, f(x)=(-\infty, \infty)

STEP 3

For the function h(x)=2xx2h(x)=\frac{2 x}{x^{2}-}, the denominator cannot be zero because division by zero is undefined. So, we need to find the values of x that make the denominator zero and exclude them from the domain.
x2=0x^{2}-=0

STEP 4

olve the equation x24=0x^{2}-4=0 for x.
x2=4x^{2}=4x=±4x=\pm\sqrt{4}x=±2x=\pm2

STEP 5

The values x=2x=2 and x=2x=-2 make the denominator zero, so they are not in the domain. The domain of h(x)h(x) is all real numbers except x=2x=2 and x=2x=-2.
Domainofh(x)=(,2)(2,2)(2,)Domain\, of\, h(x)=(-\infty, -2) \cup (-2,2) \cup (2, \infty)

STEP 6

For the function G(x)=x+4x34xG(x)=\frac{x+4}{x^{3}-4 x}, the denominator cannot be zero. So, we need to find the values of x that make the denominator zero and exclude them from the domain.
x34x=0x^{3}-4x=0

STEP 7

Factor the equation x34x=0x^{3}-4x=0 to find the roots.
x(x24)=0x(x^{2}-4)=0x(x4)(x+4)=0x(x-\sqrt{4})(x+\sqrt{4})=0x(x2)(x+2)=0x(x-2)(x+2)=0

STEP 8

olve the equation x(x2)(x+2)=0x(x-2)(x+2)=0 for x.
x=0,x=2,x=2x=0, x=2, x=-2

STEP 9

The values x=x=, x=2x=2, and x=2x=-2 make the denominator zero, so they are not in the domain. The domain of G(x)G(x) is all real numbers except x=x=, x=2x=2, and x=2x=-2.
DomainofG(x)=(,2)(2,)(,2)(2,)Domain\, of\, G(x)=(-\infty, -2) \cup (-2,) \cup (,2) \cup (2, \infty)

STEP 10

For the function G(x)=xG(x)=\sqrt{-x}, the expression under the square root cannot be negative because the square root of a negative number is not a real number. So, we need to find the values of x that make the expression under the square root nonnegative.
x0-x \geq0

STEP 11

olve the inequality x0-x \geq0 for x.
xx \leq

STEP 12

The domain of G(x)G(x) is all real numbers less than or equal to.
DomainofG(x)=(,]Domain\, of\, G(x)=(-\infty,]

STEP 13

For the function f(x)=xxf(x)=\frac{x}{\sqrt{x-}}, the expression under the square root cannot be negative and the denominator cannot be zero. So, we need to find the values of x that make the expression under the square root positive.
x>0x- >0

STEP 14

olve the inequality x4>0x-4 >0 for x.
x>4x >4

STEP 15

The domain of f(x)f(x) is all real numbers greater than4.
Domainoff(x)=(4,)Domain\, of\, f(x)=(4, \infty)
