Intermediate Algebra Find the Domain...?

Find the domain of each function please show work

f(x)=7X+3

f(x)=X-2/2X^2-7X+6

f(x)=log2(x-5)

f(x)=2^x-8

f(x)=4X^2-2X+3

    1) y = 7x + 3

    the domain is all the real numbers

    2) y = (x - 2)/(2x^2 - 7x + 6)

    y = (x - 2)/((x - 2)(2x - 3))

    the domain is all the real numbers except x ≠ 3/2 , x ≠ 2

    3) if it is:

    y = ln_2(x - 5)

    the domain is x > 5

    and if it is:

    y = log[2(x - 5)]

    the domain is x > 5

    4) y = 2^(x - 8)

    the domain is all the real positive numbers: x > 0

    5) y= 4x^2 - 2x + 3

    the domain is all the real numbers

    Edit: @ SynexRox : You are right about #4, I fixed my typo.

    But for #2, the domain must be determined before removing holes i.e. by cancelling factors from denominator and numerator. Therefore the domain is all the real numbers except: x ≠ 3/2 , x ≠ 2

    Slight modification to the above answer

    2) y = (x - 2)/(2x^2 - 7x + 6)

    y = (x - 2)/((x - 2)(2x - 3)) = ( 1 / (2x - 3))

    the domain is all the real numbers except x ≠ 3/2

    4) y = 2^(x - 8)

    the domain is all the positive numbers

    a million) The area is the set of numbers for which the the self reliant variable x is defined. The answere to #a million relies upon on the context. in case you're talking a pair of non-end function interior the airplane it relatively is the real numbers. in case you have been somewhat talking approximately discrete products the area may well be non-damaging integers or all integersif negatives are allowed. those are purely examples. 2) not sure what you advise. The slope is undefined everywhere? Vertical lines fulfill that.
