Explanation:
#f(x)=(x-1)/(3-x)# The denominator of f(x) cannot be zero as this would make f(x) undefined. Equating the denominator to zero and solving gives the value that x cannot be.

#rArr"domain is "x inRR,x!=3#
#"to find the range rearrange making x the subject"#
#y=(x-1)/(3-x)#
#rArry(3-x)=x-1#

#rArr-xy-x=-1-3y#
#rArrx(-y-1)=-1-3y#
#rArrx=(-1-3y)/(-y-1)#
#"the denominator "!=0#

#rArr"range is "y inRR,y!=-1#
#"the domain and range are not the same"#
