You can use the definition of logarithm and the fact that a positive number raised to any power will always stay bigger than 0.

The domain of the given function is  {x | x > 1 and a real number }

The range of the given function is \mathbb R (set of real numbers)

<h3>What is the definition of logarithm?</h3>

If a is raised to power b is resulted as c, then we can rewrite it that b equals to the logarithm of c with base a.

Or, symbolically:

a^b =  c \implies b = log_a(c)

Since c was the result of a raised to power b, thus, if a was a positive number, then a raised to any power won't go less or equal to zero, thus making c > 0

<h3>How to use this definition to find the domain and range of given function?</h3>

Since log(x-1) is with base 10 (when base of log isn't specified, it is assumed to be with base 10) (when log is written ln, it is log with base e =2.71828.... ) thus, we have a = 10 > 0 thus the input x-1 > 0 too.

Or we have:

x > 1 as the restriction.

Thus domain of the given function is {x | x > 1 and a real number }

Now from domain, we have:

x >  1\\&#10;x-1 > 0\\&#10;log(x-1) > -\infty\\&#10;log(x-1) + 2 > -\infty\\&#10;f(x) > -\infty (log(x-1) > -infinity since log(0) on right side have arbitrary negatively large value which is denoted by -infinity)

Thus, range of given function  is whole real number set \mathbb R (since all finite real numbers are bigger than negative infinity)

Thus, the domain of the given function is  {x | x > 1 and a real number }

The range of the given function is \mathbb R (set of real numbers

What is 10 squared plus b squared equals 22 squared
klio [65]
I'm pretty sure you are asking for the value of b. Let's actually write it and then solve it:
10^2 + b^2 = 22^2

Solving for b yields:
b = \sqrt{22^2-10^2} = \sqrt{484-100} = \sqrt{384} = 19.59

So, b = 19.59. If you want the answer in simplified radical form, we can also do that:
\sqrt{384} =  \sqrt{16*24} = 4 \sqrt{24} = 4 \sqrt{4*6} = 8 \sqrt{6}

So, b = 8√6 = 19.59
