Set the equations each to each other and solve for x
f(x) = g(x)
x^2 - 3x = 2x+14
x^2-3x-2x-14 = 0
x^2-5x-14 = 0 .... see note below
(x-7)(x+2) = 0
x-7 = 0 or x+2 = 0
x = 7 or x = -2
The two solutions are x = 7 or x = -2

note: we technically could stop at this line and divert to another path. Instead of finding the actual solutions, we can use the discriminant formula
d = b^2 - 4ac
to find the value of d. It turns out that
d = (-5)^2 - 4(1)(-14)
d = 81
which is a positive number. So that shows we have two solutions.

Find the domain of the function f(x)=<img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%7Bx%5E3-16x%7D" id="TexFormula1" title="\sqrt{x^3

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

$f\left(x\right)=\sqrt{x^3-16x}$

We know that the domain of the function is the set of input or arguments for which the function is real and defined.

In other words,

Domain refers to all the possible sets of input values on the x-axis.

Now, determine non-negative values for radicals so that we can sort out the domain values for which the function can be defined.

$x^3-16x\ge 0$

as x³ - 16x ≥ 0

$\left(x+4\right)\left(x-4\right)\ge \:0$

Thus, identifying the intervals:

$-4\le \:x\le \:0\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x\ge \:4$

Thus,

The domain of the function f(x) is:

$x\left(x+4\right)\left(x-4\right)\ge \:0\quad :\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:-4\le \:x\le \:0\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x\ge \:4\:\\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:\left[-4,\:0\right]\cup \:[4,\:\infty \:)\end{bmatrix}$
