Consider the equation y = x^2. No matter what x happens to be, the result y will never be negative even if x is negative. Example: x = -3 leads to y = x^2 = (-3)^2 = 9 which is positive.
Since y is never negative, this means the inverse x = sqrt(y) has the right hand side never be negative. The entire curve of sqrt(x) is above the x axis except for the x intercept of course. Put another way, we cannot plug in a negative input into the square root function for this reason. This similar idea applies to any even index such as fourth roots or sixth roots.
Meanwhile, odd roots such as a cube root has its range extend from negative infinity to positive infinity. Why? Because y = x^3 can have a negative output. Going back to x = -3 we get y = x^3 = (-3)^3 = -27. So we can plug a negative value into the cube root to get some negative output. We can get any output we want, negative or positive. So the range of any radical with an odd index is effectively the set of all real numbers. Visually this produces graphs that have parts on both sides of the x axis.
<span>So we have a problem with two unknows and one equation. We have to express one over the other like this: 7a - 2b = 5a + b. First we separate one kind on the left side and the other kind on the right side: 7a - 5a = b + 2b. Then: 2a = 3b. Now we divide both sides by 2 and get: a= 3b/2.</span>
In order to solve a proportion you need to cross multiply, so you would do:
4x20 and 9xX and you would get...
9x=80
then divide by nine to get
x=8.8888888889
which is technically 8.9
After the value of y is 4 does the exponential function definitely surpasses the linear function.
What is exponential function?
A function whose value is a constant raised to the power of the argument, especially the function where the constant is e.
Given
Use the graphing calculator to graph these functions: y1= 2x ; y2= 2x2 ; y3 = 2x.
As we can see y1=2x is a linear function and y3=2^x is a exponential function.
The graphs of y1 and y3 meet at 2 points i.e. at (1,2) and (2,4)
When you graph the equations their point of intersection is (2,4).
Therefore, when y > 4, the exponential function surpasses the linear function.
