Let $f: \mathbf{R}-\left\{\frac{-1}{2}\right\} \rightarrow \mathbf{R}$ and $g: \mathbf{R}-\left\{\frac{-5}{2}\right\} \rightarrow \mathbf{R}$ be defined as $f(x)=\frac{2 x+3}{2 x+1}$ and $g(x)=\frac{|x|+1}{2 x+5}$. Then, the domain of the function fog is :
Solution
<p>$$\begin{aligned}
& f(x)=\frac{2 x+3}{2 x+1} ; x \neq-\frac{1}{2} \\
& g(x)=\frac{|x|+1}{2 x+5}, x \neq-\frac{5}{2}
\end{aligned}$$</p>
<p>Domain of $f(g(x))$</p>
<p>$f(g(x))=\frac{2 g(x)+3}{2 g(x)+1}$</p>
<p>$x \neq-\frac{5}{2}$ and $\frac{|x|+1}{2 x+5} \neq-\frac{1}{2}$</p>
<p>$x \in R-\left\{-\frac{5}{2}\right\}$ and $x \in R$</p>
<p>$\therefore$ Domain will be $\mathrm{R}-\left\{-\frac{5}{2}\right\}$</p>
