Mathhsssss help please
For the domain, you want to see what x-values (if any) are excluded from the possible values. consider: square roots always be non-negative and you cannot have 0 as the denominator. I'll walk you through the first function as an example. f(x) = 2x/(x^2+11x+30) factoring the denominator gives us \[f(x)=\frac{ 2x }{ (x+5)(x+6) }\] your denominator must be nonzero. so x = -5 and x = -6 are both excluded from your domain. your domain is every real value except -5 and -6.
The range on this function is actually a bit involved to calculate by hand, so I would recommend graphing this one If you look at the graph, you can see multiple parts where multiple domain values get assigned to the same range value. For example, for y = -4 you can see 4 possible x-values that match. So this is a many-to-one function. Repeat this process for the other three functions.
a. for range let f(x)=y \[y=\frac{ 2x }{ x^2+11x+30 }\] \[x^2y+11xy+30y= 2x\] \[yx^2+11yx-2x+30y=0\] \[yx^2+(11y-2)x+30y=0\] which is a quadratic in x. it has solution \[if~discriminant \ge 0\] \[(11y-2)^2-4y \times 30y \ge 0\] \[121y^2-44y+4-120y^2 \ge 0\] \[y^2-44y+4\ge 0\] \[y^2-44y+(\frac{-44}{2})^2\ge ( \frac{-44}{2})^2-4\] \[(y-22)^2 \ge 22^2-4\] \[(y-22)^2\ge (484-4)\] \[\left| y-22 \right|\ge \sqrt{480}\] or \[\left| y-22 \right|\ge 4\sqrt{30}\] \[y\le 22-4 \sqrt{30}\] or \[y \ge 22+4\sqrt{30}\]
thanks for the help :)
Do you need help with the other functions or are you good? We can always help check your solution if you want to try it on your own.
lemme try myself .. next i'll need help on probability
