Question
Write the domain of the real function $\text{f(x)}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{|\text{x}|-\text{x}}}.$

Answer

Case-1: When x > 0
|x| = x
$\Rightarrow\ \frac{1}{\sqrt{|\text{x}|-\text{x}}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{x}-\text{x}}}=\frac{1}{0}=\infty$
Case-2: When x < 0
|x| = -x
$\Rightarrow\ \frac{1}{\sqrt{|\text{x}|-\text{x}}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{-\text{x}-\text{x}}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{-2\text{x}}}$ (exists because when x < 0, -2x > 0)
⇒ f(x) is defined when x < 0
So, domain $=(-\infty,0)$
