the domain is all real x except when $x=+-2$

For the domain, look at the denominator. For fractions, the denominator cannot equal to zero as this is considered undefined

ie $x^2-4 !=0$

SO to find where it equal to zero, you say

$x^2-4=0$

$x=+-2$

Therefore, the domain is all real x except when $x=+-2$
