Transcript text: Summarize the pertinent information obtained by applying the graphing strategy and sketch the graph of $f(x)=\frac{3 x^{2}}{x-7}$.
Find the domain of $\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})$. Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice.
A. The domain is all real $x$, except $x=$ $\square$ .
(Type an integer or a decimal. Use a comma to separate answers as needed.)
B. The domain is all real $x$.
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Determine the Domain of the Function
The function given is \( f(x) = \frac{3x^2}{x-7} \). The domain of a function is the set of all possible input values (x-values) that will not cause the function to be undefined. For rational functions, the denominator cannot be zero. Therefore, we set the denominator equal to zero and solve for \( x \):
\[
x - 7 = 0 \implies x = 7
\]
Thus, the domain of \( f(x) \) is all real numbers except \( x = 7 \).
Final Answer
A. The domain is all real \( x \), except \( x = 7 \).
