How to write a domain

Mathematics
1 answer:
Gre4nikov [31]3 years ago
7 0
The domain are all valid values for x (the independent variable) that can be used in an equation.

We have to look at any potential values of x which won't work. Easily put: in algebra, just look for values of x which cause either division by zero, or the square root of negative numbers.

A couple of examples: 
y=2x+4
You can insert any negative or positive value, or zero, for x and get a valid equation. Therefore the domain is the set of all real numbers. Answers are usually written as:
x: {R}, or simply 'all real numbers'.

what about y=2/(x-1)
In this equation, x appears in the denominator. If x-1=0, then division by zero would occur. 
Solve: x-1≠0
x≠1
In set notation:
x: (-∞,1)∪(1,∞)
Parentheses are next to the 1, as the domain comes up to 1, but does not include 1. 
Read left to right, the domain is "negative infinity to 1, exclusive, in union with 1 to positive infinity"

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

Zhenghao is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

(2x+3)(x + 4) = x² + 7x + 12

The only two factors of  x² + 7x + 12 different from 1 ,-1 and and itself are (2x+3) and (x + 4)

If Hafsana says that (x + 3) is a factor of x² + 7 + 12, He or she is not correct.

If Zhenghao says that x² + 7x + 12 is divisible by 2x + 3, He or she is correct because (2x + 3) is a factor of x² + 7x + 12

Mary wants to fill in a cylinder vase. At the flower store they told her that the vase should be filled for the flowers to last
igor_vitrenko [27]
For the problem, we are asked t o calculate the volume of the cylindrical vase and it will represent the amount of water that Mary should pour. For a cylinder, the volume is calculated as follows:

V = πr²l
V = π(3)²(8)
<span>V = 226.19 in³ water needed</span>

elena-s [515]
First find numbers that the denominator and the numerator can both be divided with. Such as 3, now 6/3=2 and 9/3=3. So basically it is 2/3. 6/9 simplify to 2/3.
