Find the Domain and Range s(y)=(3y)/(y+5)

$s (y) = \frac{3 y}{y + 5}$

Rewrite the equation as $\frac{3 y}{y + 5} = x$ .

$\frac{3 y}{y + 5} = x$

Find the LCD of the terms in the equation.

Finding the LCD of a list of values is the same as finding the LCM of the denominators of those values.

$y + 5, 1$

Remove parentheses.

$y + 5, 1$

The LCM of one and any expression is the expression.

$y + 5$

Multiply each term in $\frac{3 y}{y + 5} = x$ by $y + 5$ to eliminate the fractions.

Multiply each term in $\frac{3 y}{y + 5} = x$ by $y + 5$ .

$\frac{3 y}{y + 5} (y + 5) = x (y + 5)$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $y + 5$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{3 y}{y + 5} (y + 5) = x (y + 5)$

Rewrite the expression.

$3 y = x (y + 5)$

Simplify the right side.

Apply the distributive property.

$3 y = x y + x \cdot 5$

Move $5$ to the left of $x$ .

$3 y = x y + 5 x$

Solve the equation.

Subtract $x y$ from both sides of the equation.

$3 y - x y = 5 x$

Factor $y$ out of $3 y - x y$ .

Factor $y$ out of $3 y$ .

$y \cdot 3 - x y = 5 x$

Factor $y$ out of $- x y$ .

$y \cdot 3 + y (- x) = 5 x$

Factor $y$ out of $y \cdot 3 + y (- x)$ .

$y (3 - x) = 5 x$

Divide each term in $y (3 - x) = 5 x$ by $3 - x$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $y (3 - x) = 5 x$ by $3 - x$ .

$\frac{y (3 - x)}{3 - x} = \frac{5 x}{3 - x}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $3 - x$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{y (3 - x)}{3 - x} = \frac{5 x}{3 - x}$

Divide $y$ by $1$ .

$y = \frac{5 x}{3 - x}$

Set the denominator in $\frac{5 x}{3 - x}$ equal to $0$ to find where the expression is undefined.

$3 - x = 0$

Solve for $x$ .

Subtract $3$ from both sides of the equation.

$- x = - 3$

Divide each term in $- x = - 3$ by $- 1$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $- x = - 3$ by $- 1$ .

$\frac{- x}{- 1} = \frac{- 3}{- 1}$

Simplify the left side.

Dividing two negative values results in a positive value.

$\frac{x}{1} = \frac{- 3}{- 1}$

Divide $x$ by $1$ .

$x = \frac{- 3}{- 1}$

Simplify the right side.

Divide $- 3$ by $- 1$ .

$x = 3$

The domain is all values of $x$ that make the expression defined.
