given that y(x)= sqrt of 4x-1 and v(x) = x-5, what is the domain of u(v(x))

OpenStudy (ankit042):

can you find u(v(x) first?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well wouldn't u(v(x)) be ( sqrt of 4x - 1)(x-5) ?

OpenStudy (ankit042):

NO u(x) = sqrt of 4x-1and v(x) =x-5 now u(v(x)) replace x in u(x) with v(x) which gives you sqrt(4(x-5) -1)

OpenStudy (ankit042):

for the domain value inside sqrt should be greater than zero so 4(x-5)-1 >0 Can you solve now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh alright. Would it be 5.25? (or 21 over 4 for fractional form)

OpenStudy (ankit042):

it will be inequality

OpenStudy (ankit042):

x> 21/4

OpenStudy (ankit042):

Answer is secondary did you get understand the method to solve it
