The domain of the function $f(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{x+|x|}}$ is

The domain of the function $f(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{x+|x|}}$ is
  1. $(-\infty, 0)$
  2. $(2,5)$
  3. $(0, \infty)$
  4. $(-\infty, \infty)$

Solution

$f(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{x+|x|}}$ Here $x+|x| \geq 0$ and $\sqrt{x+|x|} \neq 0$ $\therefore \mathrm{x}+|\mathrm{x}|>0$ Now when $x>0, x+|x|=x+x \Rightarrow 2 x>0$. When $\mathrm{x} < 0, \mathrm{x}+|\mathrm{x}|=\mathrm{x}-\mathrm{x}=0$ $\therefore \mathrm{x}>0$ is the required domain.
