The correct Answer is:
To find the domain of the function \( f(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{x - 3}} \), we need to determine the values of \( x \) for which the function is defined. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the expression under the square root**: The function has a square root in the denominator, which is \( \sqrt{x - 3} \). For the function to be defined, the expression inside the square root must be positive (since we cannot take the square root of a negative number) and cannot be zero (since it is in the denominator). 2. **Set up the inequality**: We need \( x - 3 > 0 \) to ensure the square root is defined and positive. This leads us to the inequality: \[ x - 3 > 0 \] 3. **Solve the inequality**: Adding 3 to both sides gives: \[ x > 3 \] 4. **Determine the domain**: The values of \( x \) that satisfy this inequality are all real numbers greater than 3. In interval notation, this is expressed as: \[ (3, \infty) \] 5. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the domain of the function \( f(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{x - 3}} \) is \( (3, \infty) \). ### Final Answer: The domain of \( f(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{x - 3}} \) is \( (3, \infty) \). ---
