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).

Andy joins a social networking site. After day three, he has 25 friends; after day eight, he has 40 friends. Write the equation
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Point slope intercept form: The equation for line is given by; y-y_1=m(x-x_1) ......[1] ; where m is the slope and a point (x_1, y_1) on the line.

Let x represents the number of days and y represents the number of friends.

As per the statement:  After day three, he has 25 friends; after day eight, he has 40 friends.

⇒ We have two points i.e,

(3, 25) and (8, 40)

First calculate slope(m);

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Substitute the given values we get;

m = \frac{40-25}{8-3}=\frac{15}{5} = 3

now, substitute the given values of m=3 and a point (3, 25) in [1] we get;

y-25=3(x-3)

Using distributive property; a \cdot(b+c) = a\cdot b + a\cdot c

y-25 = 3x - 9

Add 25 on both sides, we get;

y-25+25 = 3x - 9+25

Simplify:

y =3x + 16

if  x = 18 days, then;

y = 3(18) + 16 = 54+16 = 70

Therefore, he will have on day 18, if he continues to add the same number of friends each day is, 70 friends.
