The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

 To find the domain of the function \(f(x)=\frac{\log_{x+1}(x-2)}{e^{2\log x}-(2x+3)}\), we need to consider the restrictions imposed by both the numerator and the denominator.

  1. The numerator is \(\log_{x+1}(x-2)\). For a logarithm \(\log_b(a)\) to be defined:
    • \(b = x + 1 > 0 \Rightarrow x > -1\)
    • \(b \neq 1 \Rightarrow x + 1 \neq 1 \Rightarrow x \neq 0\)
    • \(a = x - 2 > 0 \Rightarrow x > 2\)
  2. Next, consider the denominator \(e^{2\log x}-(2x+3)\). This expression must not be zero:
    • \(e^{2\log x} = (e^{\log x})^2 = x^2\). So, we have \(x^2 \neq 2x + 3\).
    • This can be rewritten as \(x^2 - 2x - 3 \neq 0\).
    • Solving \(x^2 - 2x - 3 = 0\), we factor it as \((x-3)(x+1)=0\).
    • Hence, the solutions are \(x = 3\) and \(x = -1\).
    • We exclude these values, taking into account \(x \neq 3\) since \(x > 2\).

Taking all these restrictions into account, we combine the conditions to find the domain:

  • \(x > 2\) from the conditions on the numerator.
  • \(x \neq 3\) from the conditions on the denominator.

Therefore, the domain of the function is \(x \in (2, \infty) - \{3\}\).

Therefore, the correct answer is: (2, ∞) - {3}
