Relate a function's domain to its equation, graph, and context, especially when model choice matters.

Write the domain in interval notation by excluding denominator zeros

Problem

Write in interval notation all real numbers except \(-2\) and \(5\).

Big Picture

What this problem is really about

Removing two inputs cuts the real line into three connected pieces, so interval notation must preserve all three rather than only the middle. Place parentheses at each missing number and at infinity, then join the pieces with union symbols. A quick membership check should exclude exactly the stated pair and retain every other real input.
