The domain of definition of the function $$ y = \frac{1}{\log_{10}(1 - x)} + \sqrt{x + 2} $$
A$(-3, -2) - \{-2.5\}$
B$[0, 1] - \{0.5\}$
C$[-2, 1) - \{0\}$
Dnone of these
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. $[-2, 1) - \{0\}$
For the square root term, we need
$$x+2 \ge 0$$
so
$$x \ge -2$$
For the logarithm, its argument must be positive:
$$1-x>0$$
so
$$x<1$$
Also, the logarithm is in the denominator, so it cannot be zero:
$$\log_{10}(1-x) \ne 0$$
This happens when
$$1-x \ne 1$$
so
$$x \ne 0$$
Combining all conditions,
$$-2 \le x < 1,\ x\ne 0$$
Hence the domain is
$$[-2,1)-\{0\}$$
This matches option $\mathrm{C}$.
