true or false?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

what does a domain tell us?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the base?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the usable inputs. do they both have the same usable x values?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

cbrt .... i was reading it as a sqrt. domain and range are fine

OpenStudy (anonymous):

huh? I'm confused

OpenStudy (amistre64):

and logically speaking, if we have half of something, then we are necessarily shorter/smaller than the original

OpenStudy (amistre64):

by convention we do not shrink things horizontally. if y1 = 1/2 yo then measuring with respect to the y axis ... the shrink is vertical right?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

i was worried about A but thats because i read the problem is a squareroot (sqrt) instead of a cuberoot (cbrt). but A is fine

OpenStudy (amistre64):

overall, you are correct, A and B are correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhhhhh ok what about c

OpenStudy (amistre64):

tell me what your thought are in C ....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry I meant d and because it shrinks vertically?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

d is comparing an apple to an orange ...

OpenStudy (amistre64):

sqrt does not look like cbrt

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A is not correct the first function's domain is {x belongs to R such that x>=2} and the second function's domain is {x belongs to R such that x>=0}

OpenStudy (amistre64):

\[f(x)=\sqrt[3]{x}~:~dom(f)=all~Reals\] shifting it left or right does not affect the domain since there are no restrictions to be had to start with

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok...confused now

OpenStudy (amistre64):

IF, like i had read to start with this was: \[f(x)=\sqrt{x}~:~dom(f)=x\ge0\] then shifting it would affect the domian

OpenStudy (amistre64):

if you are confused, then you simply need to get a better grasp on what a domain and range for a function are. but im thinking you already know it and just lack the confidence. you did fine. A and B are correct

OpenStudy (amistre64):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@amistre64 sorry, i thought it is sq root.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

i know :) i mistook it as a sqrt to begin with when i asked about domain.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you again @amistre64
