Find Range of y.
\[y=\frac{e^{x}-e^{-|x|}}{e^{x}+e^{|x|}}\]
Can u graph the function
no
this looks like hyperbolic tangent function
also, the local maxima nad minima can be found from the derivatives. then check for the absolute maxima and minima using limits.
\[ y=\frac{e^x-e^{-|x|}}{e^x+e^{-|x|}}=\frac{e^{x+|x|}-1}{e^{x+|x|}+1}\\ y=\cases{\frac{e^{2x}-1}{e^{2x}+1} \forall\;x\ge0\\ 0\qquad\quad\forall\;x<0} \]
we notice that the minima is y=0 and a horizontal asymptote at y=1 conclusion: \[\Large y\in[0,1]\]
@electrokid y lies in [0,1/2)
not 1/2 but "1"
that is your range
i am telling the ans.
the given ans.
ooh wait.. I took the function worong Correct the denominator and folow the same steps
no
\[ y=\cases{\frac{e^x-e^{-x}}{2e^x}\;\forall\;x\ge0\\ 0\qquad\quad\forall x<0} \]
ok then
and then it is pretty simple to get \[\Large y\in\left[1,{1\over2}\right)\]
ans is [0,1/2)
my typo..
it is 0<=y<1/2
@electrokid
you should then click on the best answer
I have done like this but not getting the ans.
you do not need any of that
we don't know calculus by now.
so help me with my sol.
no need of any calculus \[ y=\cases{\frac{e^x-e^{-x}}{2e^x}={1\over2}-{e^{-2x}\over 2}\;\forall\;x\ge0\\ 0\qquad\quad\forall x<0} \] from this, we know that y minimum = 0 then for x>=0, we notice that it is continuously increasing function \[y_0={1\over2}-{e^0\over2}=0\\ y_\infty={1\over2}-{e^{-\infty}\over2}={1\over2} \]
