The inverse of y = x(x - 2) |
2016-12-21 |
|
From Sasha:
Hello, I recently stumbled upon this question and I haven't been able to figure it out.
Why is the inverse of y=x(x-2) not a function?
Suggest a domain restriction which would ensure that the inverse is a function.
Thank You :)

The domain of a derivative |
2013-10-10 |

From Renee:
I am looking to find the domain of a derivative of a radical function,
one such as: f(x) = the square root of (8 − x).
I am kind of unclear on how domains work for derivative.
I don't understand how you take a function's domain and use that to
find the derivative's domain.
Thanks!

Quadratic equations arising from practical problems |
2008-11-24 |
|
From Lenval:
Why do quadratic equations arising from practical problems often give physically impossible solutions such as negative distances, negative times or, say, a polygon with a negative number of sides? For example: "A river in flood carries a tree t-squared - 23t metres downstream in t seconds. How long does it take for the tree to be carried 50 metres downstream?" This gives t=25 and t=-2. Please explain the second 'solution', which is not physically possible.

The range of a function |
2007-11-12 |

From Camille:
Hi There,
I am taking a calculus class by correspondence and part of the introduction is
learning how to find domain and range of functions. I understand how to find the
domain. I also understand that if you find the inverse of the equation and
solve for x to find the domain it will give you the range because the domain
of the inverse is equivalent to the range of the original equation. However when
trying to apply this method to complicated questions (ie: square root in the
denominator) I get confused and can't solve for x.

From Yvonne:
In our new text book, the following question occurs: State the domain and range of g(f(x))given that f(x) = -x2 - 4 and g(x) = sqrt(x) The range of f(x), x<=-4, is the domain of g(x). BUT, there is no solution in the Real numbers for g(f(x))= sqrt(-x2 - 4). In the solutions it says that this is not a function and therefore does not have a domain or range. Is it a relation? Is it anything?

I feel that the value of x should then be 0 (zero) but then how do I explain this to the students as we also know that anything to the power of 0 is 1 but here 0 raised to 0 is 1.
