Two main facts are needed here:

1. The logarithm \log x, regardless of the base of the logarithm, exists for x>0.

2. The square root \sqrt x exists for x\ge0.

(in both cases we're assuming real-valued functions only)

By (2) we know that \sqrt{2x-1} exists if 2x-1\ge0, or x\ge\dfrac12.

By (1), we know that \log(\sqrt{2x-1}+3) exists if \sqrt{2x-1}+3>0, or \sqrt{2x-1}>-3. But as long as the square root exists, it will always be positive, so this condition will always be met.

Ultimately, then, we only require x\ge\dfrac12, so the function has domain \left[\dfrac12,\infty).

To determine the range, we need to know that, in their respective domains, \sqrt x and \log x increase monotonically without bound. We also know that x=\dfrac12 at minimum, at which point the square root term vanishes, so the least value the function takes on is \log3. Then its range would be [\log3,\infty).

There are 364 first-grade students in Park Elementary School. If there are 26 more girls than boys, how many girls are there?
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

195

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are x boys, then there are x+26 girls. Hence, we write the equation,

x+(x+26)=364

Solve for x:    

        2x+26=364

            2x-338

             x=169

So there are 169+26 =195 girls
