Find Domain...B

Find the domain of each expression. If the domain does not exist over the real numbers, say none.

1. (x^2)/(x^2 + 1)


2. x/(x^2 - 9)

============================

Question 1

(x^2)/(x^2 + 1)

I quickly see that the denominator, when set equal to 0, leads to complex roots (domain lies outside the realm of real numbers).

So, my answer is none.

Question 2

x/(x^2 - 9)

x^2 - 9 = 0

x^2 = 9

sqrt{x^2} = sqrt{9}

x = -3, x = 3

Domain = {x | x cannot be -3 or 3}

Is any of this correct?
