\[\sqrt{9-x^2}\]

here we go again
but this time lets work smarter

Do the same thing as @satellite73 showed you :D

start with the equation of a circle with radius 3 and center at the origin. the equation for such a circle is \(x^2+y^2=9\)
and i hope you have seen this before
so lets solve for \(y\) and see what happens

wat confused..... do this by that way
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[x^2+y^2=9\]
\[y^2=9-x^2\]
\[y=\pm\sqrt{9-x^2}\] now this is not a function, because of the \(\pm\) but that is ok, get rid of the \(-\) part and get \(f(x)=\sqrt{9-x^2}\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so what you see is that this function is just the upper half of the circle, i.e. a semicircle, which radius 3
so the domain will be \([-3,3]\) and the range will bet \([0,3]\)

@satellite73 any other way!!
