Question
Find the domain of the function $f(x) = \frac{{{x^2} + 2x + 1}}{{{x^2} - 8x + 12}}$.

Answer

Here $f(x) = \frac{{{x^2} + 2x + 1}}{{{x^2} - 8x + 12}}$
f (x) is a rational function of x.
f (x) assumes real values of all x except for those values of x for which
$x^2-8 x+12=0$
$\Rightarrow(x-6)(x-2)=0$
$\Rightarrow x=2,6$
$\therefore$ Domain of function $=R-\{2,6\}$.
