Determine the domain of the function f(x)=x4√9−x2
The function is not defined when the radicand is a negative value and when the denominator is 0. So,
9−x2>0Difference of squares(3+x)(3−x)>0
The factors on the left hand side of the inequality are 3+x and 3−x. These factors are zero when x is −3 and 3, respectively. These numbers divide the number line into intervals
(−∞,−3),(−3,3),(3,∞)
By testing some points on the interval
Thus, the domain of f(x) is (−3,3)
