The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the functions \( f(x) \) and \( g(x) \) given in the piecewise format, and then find the function \( \frac{f}{g} \) and its domain. ### Step 1: Define the functions \( f(x) \) and \( g(x) \) The function \( f(x) \) is defined as: - \( f(x) = x^2 - 4x + 3 \) for \( x < 3 \) - \( f(x) = x - 4 \) for \( x \geq 3 \) The function \( g(x) \) is defined as: - \( g(x) = x - 3 \) for \( x < 4 \) - \( g(x) = x^2 + 2x + 2 \) for \( x \geq 4 \) ### Step 2: Write the expression for \( \frac{f}{g} \) Now, we will write \( \frac{f(x)}{g(x)} \) for the different intervals of \( x \): 1. For \( x < 3 \): \[ \frac{f(x)}{g(x)} = \frac{x^2 - 4x + 3}{x - 3} \] 2. For \( 3 \leq x < 4 \): \[ \frac{f(x)}{g(x)} = \frac{x - 4}{x - 3} \] 3. For \( x \geq 4 \): \[ \frac{f(x)}{g(x)} = \frac{x - 4}{x^2 + 2x + 2} \] ### Step 3: Identify the domain of \( \frac{f}{g} \) The domain of \( \frac{f}{g} \) is determined by the values of \( x \) for which \( g(x) \neq 0 \), since division by zero is undefined. - For \( x < 3 \): - \( g(x) = x - 3 \) which is zero at \( x = 3 \). However, since \( x < 3 \), this part does not affect the domain. - For \( 3 \leq x < 4 \): - \( g(x) = x - 3 \) which is zero at \( x = 3 \). Therefore, \( x = 3 \) is not included in the domain. - For \( x \geq 4 \): - \( g(x) = x^2 + 2x + 2 \) is a quadratic function that is always positive (its discriminant is negative), so it does not affect the domain. ### Conclusion: Domain of \( \frac{f}{g} \) The only restriction on the domain comes from \( g(x) \) being zero at \( x = 3 \). Thus, the domain of \( \frac{f}{g} \) is all real numbers except \( 3 \). \[ \text{Domain of } \frac{f}{g} = \mathbb{R} \setminus \{3\} \]
