y is defined for x> -1x>1 and has a single zero at x=0x=0

Explanation:

y=2ln(x+1)y=2ln(x+1)

ln(x)ln(x) is defined for x>0x>0
Hence yy is defined for x> -1x>1

ln(1) =0ln(1)=0
Hence ln(x+1) = 0ln(x+1)=0 for (x+1) = 1(x+1)=1
:. y has a single zero at x=0

The graph of y is shown below:

graph{2ln(x+1) [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
