What is the range of the following function: y = 2(5^x) - 1

Orlov [11]3 years ago

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The range of the function is:

Range: y>2

or

Range: (2,∞+)

<h2>Why?</h2>

To calculate the range of the following function (exponential function) we need to perform the following steps:

First: Find the value of "x"

So, finding "x" we have:

y=2(5^{x}-1)\\\frac{y}{2}=5^{x}-1\\\\\frac{y}{2}-1=5^{x}\\\\Log_{5}(\frac{y}{2}-1)=Log_5(5^{x})\\\\x=Log_{5}(\frac{y}{2}-1)

Second: Interpret the restriction of the function:

Since we are working with logarithms, we know that the only restriction that we found is that the logarithmic functions exist only from 0 to the possitive infinite without considering the number 1.

So, we can see that if the variable "x" is a real number, "y" must be greater than 2 because if it's equal to 2 the expression inside the logarithm will tend to 0, and since the logarithm of 0 does not exist in the real numbers, the variable "x" would not be equal to a real number.

Hence, the range of the function is:

Range: y>2

or

Range: (2,∞+)

Note: I have attached a picture (the graph of the function) for better understanding.

Have a nice day!

pickupchik [31]
So Dylan traveled a total of 
100 meters (to the neighbors house)
plus 1.5 kilometers which a kilometer means thousand meters so its really 1500 meters
plus 310 meters

For Dylans distance we can do 100 + 1500 + 310 = 1910
Specers distance is given which is 1269

To find the final answer we can do Dylans distance minus Spencers so 1910 - 1269 which equals 641.

The correct answer would be that Dylan traveled 641 meters farther than Spencer

Answer: 641 

Hope this helps!
