Find the area of domain (no need to solve)
x+57=13x6
The domain of the equation is the set of domain values (of the variable in the equation) for which all algebraic expressions in the equation are well defined,
From this, of course - we exclude numbers for which arithmetic operations are not defined,
In the expression on the left side of the given equation:
x+57=13x6
there is multiplication between fractions whose denominators contain algebraic expressions that include the variable of the equation (which we are looking for when solving the equation),
Of course, these fractions are defined as long as the expression in their denominators is not equal to zero (since division by zero is not possible),
Therefore, the domain of definition of the variable in the equation will be obtained from the requirement that these expressions (in the denominators of the fractions) do not equal zero, meaning:
For the fraction in the expression on the left side we get:
x+5=0For the fraction in the expression on the right side we get:
13x=0
We will solve these inequalities (in the same way as solving an equation):
x+5=0x=−5
13x=0/:13x=0
Therefore, the correct answer is answer A.
Note:
It should be noted that the above inequality is a point inequality and not a directional inequality (meaning it negates equality: (=)and does not require direction: (<,>,\leq,\geq) ) which is solved exactly like solving an equation, this is unlike solving a directional inequality where different solution rules apply depending on the type of expressions in the inequality, for example: solving a first-degree inequality with one variable (which only has first-degree algebraic expressions and below), is solved almost identically to solving an equation, however, any division or multiplication of both sides by a negative number requires reversing the direction.
