Homework Statement
Find the Domain
f(x) = ___2___
x+3
Another way to write this that is clearer is f(x) = 2/(x + 3)NelsonsXanadu said:Homework Statement
Find the Domain
f(x) = ___2___
x+3
No, 0 is in the domain, because f(0) = 2/(0 + 3) = 2/3.NelsonsXanadu said:The Attempt at a Solution
I know this is a pretty simple question just want to make sure I'm on the right track. Wouldn't the domain be all numbers except zero? Because you can't divide by zero? How would I write this
An algebraic function is a mathematical function that can be expressed using a combination of algebraic operations, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, as well as exponents and roots. It is used to describe the relationship between two or more variables.
An algebraic function is different from other types of functions, such as trigonometric or exponential functions, because it is composed of only algebraic operations. Other types of functions may involve trigonometric, logarithmic, or exponential operations.
The standard form of an algebraic function is y = f(x), where y represents the output or dependent variable, x represents the input or independent variable, and f(x) is the expression that defines the relationship between the two variables.
To graph an algebraic function, you can plot points on a coordinate plane by substituting different values for the input variable and solving for the corresponding output variable. You can also use transformations, such as translations and reflections, to graph more complex algebraic functions.
Algebraic functions are used in various fields, such as physics, economics, and engineering, to model and solve real-world problems. For example, they can be used to calculate the trajectory of a projectile, determine the optimal production level for a company, or design a bridge that can withstand certain conditions.
