OpenStudy (anonymous):

what are the 0's?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you mean by 0's?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what values of x make the left side 0?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if x =0 then the whole left side is 0, and ln 1= 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

also, what is the domain? What values of x are allowed?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

including imaginary numbers?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i'd say no...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

only real numbers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all real numbers?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so for x^2 all real numbers work, so does e^x , I'm not sure about ln x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

break it up... any issues with x^2? any issues with e^x? any issues with ln x?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

very good... remember the domain of ln x is x>0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what are the zeros of each of those?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x=0 for x^2 x= 1 for ln x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

good. so we can draw a number line and see what happens in the different regions...|dw:1377888075584:dw|
