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.

Margaret [11]

Okay, so my last answer was deleted because I didnt show any work.


According to the rule,


a+b>c

c+b>a

c+a>b


so...


2+3=6...6<7

21+23=44...44+44

12+36=48...48<53

14+17=31...31>30


Since answer D is the only answer that fullfills the rule a+b>c, it is the correct answer
