Simple question
The concept of domain says that,the no. with log can never be less than 0,so
1-x>0
x<1.....ii)
this is the first condition
now we also, know that no. in root should never be less than 0
so,
x^2-1>=0 (>= means gretaer than or equal to)
(x+1)(x-1)>=0....... ii)
Now we will draw a number line,to find the value of x ,which satisfy the given condition
Take 1 -1 on the number line
put x=2 we get
(x+1)(x-1)=3,which is positive,so number after 1 will be positive
putting x=1/2 we get
(x+1)(x-1)=(1/2 +1)(1/2 -1)=-3/4
so,number between 1 and -1 will be negative
now alternatively,we will can draw the number line
the value will be positive,if x belongs to (-inf,-1],[1,infi)
but if we see the first condition,,,then we have to neglect [1,inf)
hence the domain will be(-inf,-1]
