The correct Answer is:
To find the domain of the function \( y = \frac{1}{\sqrt{|x| - x}} \), we need to ensure that the expression inside the square root is positive, as the square root of a negative number is not defined in the real number system, and the denominator cannot be zero. ### Step 1: Set up the inequality We need to solve the inequality: \[ |x| - x > 0 \] ### Step 2: Analyze the absolute value The expression \( |x| \) can be defined in two cases based on the value of \( x \): 1. **Case 1:** When \( x \geq 0 \) - Here, \( |x| = x \). - The inequality becomes: \[ x - x > 0 \implies 0 > 0 \] - This is false, so there are no valid \( x \) values in this case. 2. **Case 2:** When \( x < 0 \) - Here, \( |x| = -x \). - The inequality becomes: \[ -x - x > 0 \implies -2x > 0 \implies x < 0 \] - This is true for all \( x < 0 \). ### Step 3: Conclusion on the domain Since the inequality \( |x| - x > 0 \) holds true only when \( x < 0 \), we conclude that the domain of the function is: \[ \text{Domain: } (-\infty, 0) \] ### Summary The domain of the function \( y = \frac{1}{\sqrt{|x| - x}} \) is all negative real numbers, which can be expressed as: \[ \text{Domain: } (-\infty, 0) \]
