Question Number 78449 by mathocean1 last updated on 17/Jan/20

find the domain of definition of   f(x)=((−x)/(∣x∣−x))

$$\mathrm{find}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{domain}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{definition}\:\mathrm{of}\: \\ $$$$\mathrm{f}\left({x}\right)=\frac{−{x}}{\mid{x}\mid−{x}} \\ $$

f(x) = (x/(x−∣x∣))  so x < 0 so that x−∣x∣ should be   defined. for example  x =− 2,    x−∣x∣ =  ∣−2∣−(−2) = 2 + 4 = 6  so  x: x < 0

$${f}\left({x}\right)\:=\:\frac{{x}}{{x}−\mid{x}\mid} \\ $$$${so}\:{x}\:<\:\mathrm{0}\:{so}\:{that}\:{x}−\mid{x}\mid\:{should}\:{be}\: \\ $$$${defined}.\:{for}\:{example} \\ $$$${x}\:=−\:\mathrm{2},\:\:\:\:{x}−\mid{x}\mid\:=\:\:\mid−\mathrm{2}\mid−\left(−\mathrm{2}\right)\:=\:\mathrm{2}\:+\:\mathrm{4}\:=\:\mathrm{6} \\ $$$${so}\:\:{x}:\:{x}\:<\:\mathrm{0} \\ $$

x<0

$$\mathrm{x}<\mathrm{0} \\ $$
