Chapter 1: Additional Practice Problems
Six problems covering the full spread of Chapter 1's exam-relevant skills, each with a complete solution. Attempt
each problem before reading its solution.
Problem 1 — Domain With a Log and a Fraction
Find the domain of .
Solution. The logarithm requires a strictly positive argument:
The fraction requires a non-zero denominator:
Answer: intersecting both, the domain is .
Problem 2 — Composite Function
Let and . Find and its domain.
Solution.
itself has domain all reals, so the only restriction comes from : its input, , must be non-
zero.
Answer: , domain all reals except .
Problem 3 — Even, Odd, or Neither
