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"
Answer:
See proof below
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use properties of inequalities during the proof.
Let 
. then we have that 
. Hence, it makes sense to define the positive number delta as 
(the inequality guarantees that these numbers are positive).
Intuitively, delta is the shortest distance from y to the endpoints of the interval. Now, we claim that 
, and if we prove this, we are done. To prove it, let 
, then 
. First, 
then 
hence 
On the other hand, 
then 
hence 
. Combining the inequalities, we have that 
, therefore as required.
<span>The correct answer is (a) total deviation equals unexplained deviation plus explained deviation.
These deviations are commonly encountered or studied in statistics, and sometimes in regression analysis.</span>
Answer:
wild
Step-by-step explanation:
12 = r - (34 - 2)
subtract he 2 from 34
12 = r - (32)
add 32 to each side
r = 44
Check:
12 = 44 - (34 - 2)
12 = 44 - 32
12 = 12 :)
