Find the Domain and Range y=(x^2)/(x^2+1)

$y = \frac{x^{2}}{x^{2} + 1}$

Set the denominator in $\frac{x^{2}}{x^{2} + 1}$ equal to $0$ to find where the expression is undefined.

$x^{2} + 1 = 0$

Solve for $x$ .

Subtract $1$ from both sides of the equation.

$x^{2} = - 1$

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

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

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

$x = \pm i$

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

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

$x = i$

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

$x = - i$

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

$x = i, - i$

The domain is all real numbers.
