Well, I would like to write first a function and then , an interval or a point. An example.

y=1/x , x (diffrent from) 0

do you mean:

[tex] <br /> y = \frac{1}{x} \qquad \left (x \neq 0 \right )[/tex]

edit: hmm, that not displyaing properly, there should be parenthesis around the [tex]x \neq 0[/tex]. You can see the source by clicking on the image.
