functions.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

g is a line y=x for all x\(\ge\)0 f is a line y=x for all x, besides x=0 h is just a line y=x

OpenStudy (triciaal):

I got ii b) and c)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

none of them are absolutely the same thing, but the closest ones I would say are f and h

OpenStudy (isaiah.feynman):

@Vocaloid for the first one, I think zero is not allowed the domain.

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

^right, I didn't see that before, thank you

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

so I would say that none of them are the same

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

you have almost got the absolute value in g, Absolute value definition: |D| = sqrt (D^2)

Parth (parthkohli):

None of them have the same domains!

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

but switching the order of ^2 and square root eliminates the left side of the absolute value function, making it y=x for all x>=0. (as I said before)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

yes, none of them have the same exact domains

OpenStudy (triciaal):

I thought all the same but wanted 2

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

the last option specifies "none of the above"

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

is the answer "none of these" as all are saying domain is not same.

Parth (parthkohli):

Yeah.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

basically
