	The continuity of f(x,y)=ln(x^2+y^2)		2013-02-17
		From anu: the question says we have to find the points in the plane where the function is continuous: f(x,y)=ln(x^2+y^2) . here we aren't given a particular point (x,y) where we have to check a function's continuity. what is to be done if we have to check continuity over the whole domain of the function? please help .

	The LCM of 6,15 and x is 90		2011-10-30
		From Richie: Hi there, There are 2 parts to the question. #1. Factorise 90. This is easy, 90=2x3x3x5 #2 LCM of 6,15 and x is 90. What are possible values of x if x is odd? From #1, since 90=6x15, how can this be used to work out possible values of x? Thanks in advance, Richie Answered by Penny Nom.

	Limits and composite functions		2004-08-07
		From Sue: I have two questions, one about a limit and the other about a composite function. If you could help me, I'd really appreciate it. 1. Find the limit: lim[x->0] (x*csc(x)) I converted csc(x) to cos(x)/sin(x), but I didn't know what to do after that. 2. f(g(x)) = ln(x^2 + 4), f(x) = ln(x^2) and g(x) > 0 for all real x, find g(x): I'm having trouble with this one because x^2 + 4 isn't a perfect square. --Sue Answered by Penny Nom.
	Making a square		2003-09-07
		From A student: if I am given any number (say 80 for example), how may I determine the smallest whole number integer which when multipled by it will yield a square number ? In other words if I express this as: 80Ý*ÝnÝ=ÝsquareÝnumber, what is the least value of n which will yield a square. Answered by Penny Nom.
	Composition of functions		2002-04-06
		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? Answered by Claude Tardif.
