## anonymous one year ago If f(x)=(x+1)^−1 and g(x)=x−2, what is the domain of f(x)÷g(x)?

1. anonymous

all values of x (−∞,−1),(−1,2), and (2,∞) (−∞,2) and (2,∞) (−∞,−1] and [2,∞)

2. anonymous

first off, can you write the function f(x) ÷ g(x)?

3. anonymous

i dont know.

4. anonymous

$f(x) \div g(x)=(x+1)^{-1}\div (x-2)=\frac{ 1 }{ x+1 }\div (x-2)$

5. anonymous

do the division to right that as a single fraction.

6. anonymous

i have no clue how to do any this

7. anonymous

do you know how to divide fractions? because that's what this is...

8. anonymous

no

9. anonymous

you need to flip the (x-2) part to it's reciprocal and change the division sign to multiplication, then just multiply across like these examples. |dw:1436549101824:dw|

10. anonymous

okay????

11. anonymous

ok what? I'm waiting on a response from you.

12. anonymous

i dont know how to do it. or what to do

13. anonymous

I'm not really sure what more I can do here if you're not going to try. I put an example up there that's pretty much your problem with different numbers. You have to at least make an attempt for me to evaluate

14. anonymous

omg, then dont comment. if i knew how to do it i would

15. anonymous

what don't you know how to do? You're not giving me anything to work with at all
