Please
Answers
Explanation:
Answer:
x ∈ [ 1 , ∞ )
y ∈ [ 0 , ∞ )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
f ( x ) = √ ( x - 1 )
Domain :
= > √ ( x - 1 ) ≥ 0
= > x - 1 ≥ 0
= > x ≥ 1
x ∈ [ 1 , ∞ )
Range :
Let y = √ ( x - 1 )
= > x - 1 = y²
= > x = y² + 1
= > y² ≥ 0
y ∈ [ 0 , ∞ )
Hence we get required answer!
QUESTION:
Find the domain and range of the real function f denoted by f(x) = √x - 1
GIVEN:
f(x) = √x - 1
TO FIND:
Domain
Range
SOLUTION:
Firstly finding the Domain
f(x) = √x - 1
Seperate the function into two parts
√x - 1
x - 1
Find all values for which the radicand is positive or 0 Domain is all real numbers
x ≥ 1
x belongs to R
Where R is real numbers
Find the union
x belongs to [1 , ∞)
Alternative form
x ≥ 1
Now, finding the range
Let
y = √x - 1
→ y² = x - 1
→ y² + 1 = x
→ y² ≥ 0
Now,
y belongs to [0 , ∞)
