$\frac{200}{2 + x^{2}}$

Step 1

Set the denominator in $\frac{200}{2 + x^{2}}$ equal to $0$ to find where the expression is undefined.

$2 + x^{2} = 0$

Step 2

Solve for $x$ .

Step 2.1

Subtract $2$ from both sides of the equation.

$x^{2} = - 2$

Step 2.2

Take the specified root of both sides of the equation to eliminate the exponent on the left side.

$x = \pm \sqrt{- 2}$

Step 2.3

Simplify $\pm \sqrt{- 2}$ .

Step 2.3.1

Rewrite $- 2$ as $- 1 (2)$ .

$x = \pm \sqrt{- 1 (2)}$

Step 2.3.2

Rewrite $\sqrt{- 1 (2)}$ as $\sqrt{- 1} \cdot \sqrt{2}$ .

$x = \pm \sqrt{- 1} \cdot \sqrt{2}$

Step 2.3.3

Rewrite $\sqrt{- 1}$ as $i$ .

$x = \pm i \sqrt{2}$

Step 2.4

The complete solution is the result of both the positive and negative portions of the solution.

Step 2.4.1

First, use the positive value of the $\pm$ to find the first solution.

$x = i \sqrt{2}$

Step 2.4.2

Next, use the negative value of the $\pm$ to find the second solution.

$x = - i \sqrt{2}$

Step 2.4.3

The complete solution is the result of both the positive and negative portions of the solution.

$x = i \sqrt{2}, - i \sqrt{2}$

Step 3

The domain is all real numbers.
