Given:

The function is:

f(x)=\dfrac{\sqrt{2x-6}}{x-3}

To find:

The smallest possible integer value for $x$ such that $f(x)$ has a real number value.

Solution:

We have,

f(x)=\dfrac{\sqrt{2x-6}}{x-3}

This function is defined if the radicand is greater than or equal to 0, i.e., 2x-6\geq 0 and the denominator is non-zero, i.e., x-3\neq 0.

2x-6\geq 0

2x\geq 6

\dfrac{2x}{2}\geq \dfrac{6}{2}

x\geq 3             ...(i)

And,

x-3\neq 0

Adding 3 on both sides, we get

x-3+3\neq 0+3

x\neq 3             ...(ii)

Using (i) and (ii), it is clear that the function is defined for all real values which are greater than 3 but not 3.

Therefore, the smallest possible integer value for x is 4.

Westkost [7]

Answer:

APart 1:

A.53 =53

B.3^5/3^-6 =177147

C.(1/4)^3 • (1/4)^2 = 1 /1024

D.(-7)^5/(-7)^7 = 1/49

Step-by-step explanation:

I tried my best for part 2 but i'm pretty sure it's not right. I think 1/1024 and 1/49 has a value between 0 and 1

What is bigger 3/10 or 3/8
olasank [31]
3/8 is bigger than 3/10. In maths 10ths are smaller than 8ths. If both have three parts it means that 3/8 must be bigger
