Answer

Final Answer: The equation of the vertical asymptote of the function \(f(x)=\log (x-7)\) is \(\boxed{x=7}\). The domain of the function \(f(x)=\log (x-7)\) is \(\boxed{x>7}\).

Steps

Step 1 :The vertical asymptote of a logarithmic function \(f(x)=\log (x-a)\) is the vertical line \(x=a\). In this case, the vertical asymptote of the function \(f(x)=\log (x-7)\) is the vertical line \(x=7\).

Step 2 :The domain of a logarithmic function \(f(x)=\log (x-a)\) is \(x>a\). So, the domain of the function \(f(x)=\log (x-7)\) is \(x>7\).

Step 3 :Final Answer: The equation of the vertical asymptote of the function \(f(x)=\log (x-7)\) is \(\boxed{x=7}\). The domain of the function \(f(x)=\log (x-7)\) is \(\boxed{x>7}\).
