To find the domains you must graph this equation and find the x-coordinates of the points plotted. That's the domain.

Remember, if two points have the same x-coordinate then do not repeat the number when stating the domain. Domain also always must be written in the least to greatest order. Domains must be written with {} enclosing them.

So if the x-coordinates were 4,5,6,4,7,5

You would write the domain as {4,5,6,7}

The denominator of y cannot be zero as this would make y
undefined
.
Equating the denominator to zero and solving gives the value that x cannot be.
