    Domain of a Function with Sign Graph

    I meant sine graph instead of sign graph. So what do I do? Should I set the denominator to greater than or equal to zero and solve? I tried solving using the above method but I think my math is wrong. Nonetheless it is wrong because my teacher wants a sine graph on a number line... 1)...

    Domain of a Function with Sign Graph

    Homework Statement Find the domain of the function. You will need a sign graph. Answer in interval notation. Homework Equations f(x)= (3)/[(x2-4x)1/2] The Attempt at a Solution No clue - I don't know how to use a sign graph or what the positive/negative results mean as solutions on a number line.
