Answer

domain : $\{\ x \ |\ \ x\neq 8 \ \}$ interval notation: $(-\infty,8)\cup(8,\infty)$

Work Step by Step

See example 1. Division by 0 is undefined, so f(x) will be defined for all real numbers except for the number(s) x that yield zero in the denominator: $x-8=0$ $x=8$ domain : $\{\ x \ |\ \ x\neq 8 \ \}$ interval notation: $(-\infty,8)\cup(8,\infty)$
