Answer:Conclusion:

Based on the above analysis, the correct answer is:

c. Its domain is 

(

6

,

)

 and its range is 

(

0

,

)

.

c. Its domain is (6,∞) and its range is (0,∞).

Step-by-step explanation:To determine the domain and range of the function

(

)

=

1

6

f(x)=

x−6

1

, let's analyze it step by step.

Domain:

The function

6

x−6

 requires the argument inside the square root to be non-negative. Thus:

6

0

x−6≥0

6

x≥6

Additionally, the denominator

6

x−6

 must be non-zero to avoid division by zero. Therefore:

6

0

x−6

=0

6

0

x−6

=0

6

x

=6

Combining these conditions, we get:

>

6

x>6

So, the domain of the function is

(

6

,

)

(6,∞).

Range:

Next, we determine the range of the function

(

)

=

1

6

f(x)=

x−6

1

. We analyze the behavior of the function as

x approaches the boundaries of the domain.

As

6

+

x→6

+

 (approaching 6 from the right),

6

0

+

x−6

→0

+

. Thus:

(

)

=

1

6

f(x)=

x−6

1

→∞

As

x→∞,

6

x−6

→∞. Thus:

(

)

=

1

6

0

+

f(x)=

x−6

1

→0

+

The function

(

)

=

1

6

f(x)=

x−6

1

 is always positive for

>

6

x>6. Therefore, the range of the function is:

(

0

,

)

(0,∞)
