Problem

Find the domain of the following function. \[ g(x)=\frac{2}{\sqrt{5+x}} \] The domain is (Type your answer in interval notation.)

Solution

Step 1 :The function is given as \(g(x)=\frac{2}{\sqrt{5+x}}\).

Step 2 :The denominator of a function cannot be zero and the value under a square root cannot be negative for real numbers.

Step 3 :The denominator is \(\sqrt{5+x}\). This will be zero when \(5+x=0\) and negative when \(5+x<0\).

Step 4 :Solving these equations, we find that the value that makes the denominator zero is -5 and there are no values that make the denominator negative.

Step 5 :Therefore, the domain of the function is all real numbers greater than -5.

Step 6 :\(\boxed{\text{Final Answer: The domain of the function is } (-5, \infty)}\)
