Consider the functions f and g defined by \[f(x) = \sqrt{\dfrac{x+1}{x-1}}\qquad\qquad\text{and}\qquad\qquad g(x) = \dfrac{\sqrt

{x+1}}{\sqrt{x-1}}.\]Explain why f and g are not the same function.

Answer:

The given functions are not same because the domain of both functions are different.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given functions are

f(x)= \sqrt{\dfrac{x+1}{x-1}}

g(x) = \dfrac{\sqrt{x+1}}{\sqrt{x-1}}

First find the domain of both functions. Radicand can not be negative.

Domain of f(x):

\dfrac{x+1}{x-1}>0

This is possible if both numerator or denominator are either positive or negative.

Case 1: Both numerator or denominator are positive.

x+1\geq 0\Rightarrow x\geq -1

x-1\geq 0\Rightarrow x\geq 1

So, the function is defined for x≥1.

Case 2: Both numerator or denominator are negative.

x+1\leq 0\Rightarrow x\leq -1

x-1\leq 0\Rightarrow x\leq 1

So, the function is defined for x≤-1.

From case 1 and 2 the domain of the function f(x) is (-∞,-1]∪[1,∞).

Domain of g(x):

x+1\geq 0\Rightarrow x\geq -1

x-1\geq 0\Rightarrow x\geq 1

So, the function is defined for x≥1.

So, domain of g(x) is [1,∞).

Therefore, the given functions are not same because the domain of both functions are different.

One stack has 6 cups, and its height is 15 cm. The other one has 12 cups, and its height is 23 cm. How many cups are needed for
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Given

Number of stacks = 2

Stack 1 = 6 cups; h1 = 15cm

Stack 2 = 12 cups; h2 = 23cm

Let's first find the average:

With an average of 4/3, to obtain the number of cups needed to obtain a height of 50m, we have:

50 / (4/3)

= 50 * 3/4

= 150/4

= 37.5

From the answer, we can see that the number of cups is not really proportional to the height of the stack, because the average of stack one and stack 2 are different.
