No

How would I solve it using these 3 values?

Try sketching the graph of the cubic. You should be able to do this once you've factorised it.

what's the difference between domain of R and R+

 

[InteGrand]

what's the difference between domain of R and R+

The former is all real numbers, the latter is only the positive ones (sometimes including 0, so you may need to check the convention used by the author).

y = -√(16-x^2)
Is there a way to find the maximal domain and also the range by inspecting the equation?

Yes

 

[boredsatan]

Yes

how would it be done?

how would it be done?

Use your knowledge of basic functions. Alternatively, note that the graph is the lower-half of a certain circle.

Would drawing the graph be cheating?

 

[InteGrand]

Would drawing the graph be cheating?

No (assuming you draw it yourself, without using a computer to do it or something).

 

[boredsatan]

y = 2√(x+1) - 4
How do you find the domain and range. Quite confused

 

[boredsatan]

Could someone please explain how to do the bisection method in full detail, as I'm really confused how to do it

Did this post by Mahan1 make sense to you?: http://community.boredofstudies.org/12/mathematics/361960/maths-help-please.html#post7240008 .

 

[boredsatan]

y = √(-3x+5)
equation of inverse?

 

[boredsatan]

y = √(-3x+5)
equation of inverse?

anyone?

 

[He-Mann]

Note that -3x + 5 > 0, which means x < 5/3.

Now exchange x and y,

x = √(-3y + 5), y < 5/3

x^2 = -3y + 5, y < 5/3

y = (5 - x^2)/3, y < 5/3

Therefore,

f^{-1}(x) = (5 - x^2)/3, and f^{-1}(x) < 5/3.

 

[boredsatan]

find the angle that 3x-y=5 makes with the positive direction of the x axis

 

[InteGrand]

find the angle that 3x-y=5 makes with the positive direction of the x axis

would it be 18.4349488229 degrees?
