The domain of a function f(x) is the set of values of x
for which the value of f(x) is real and defined.
For the
function f(x)= , firstly (ln^2x-3lnx+2) cannot be negative as the
square root of a negative number is a complex number.
This
gives:
ln x + 2 >= 0
>= 0
0
For this to be true either both of the terms in the
product should be positive or both of them should be
negative.
ln x - 1 >= 0 and ln x - 2 >=
0
ln x >= 1 and ln x >=
2
x >= e^1 and x >=
e^2
This is true for x >=
e^2
ln x - 1 < 0 and ln x - 2 <
0
ln x < 1 and ln x
<2
x < e and x <
e^2
As the logarithm is defined only for positive numbers 0
< x < e
The domain of the given function is
