range of x/(x^2-1)

range

- \infty < f (x) < \infty

Interval Notation

(- \infty, \infty)

Solution steps

Rewrite as

\frac{x}{x ^{2} - 1} = y

Multiply both sides by

x^{2} - 1

x = y (x^{2} - 1)

The range is the set of y for which the discriminant is greater or equal to zero

Discriminant

x = y (x^{2} - 1) : 1 + 4 y^{2}

1 + 4 y^{2} \geq 0 :

True for all

y \in R

Therefore the range is

- \infty < f (x) < \infty
