Math Problem Statement

Complete the table for the function f(x) = √(x + 3) + 4 with given values of x: -3, -2, 1, and 6.

Solution

To solve the function f(x)=x+3+4f(x) = \sqrt{x + 3} + 4 and complete the table, we will evaluate f(x)f(x) for each value of xx provided in the table.

Step-by-Step Calculations:

  1. For x=3x = -3: f(3)=3+3+4=0+4=0+4=4f(-3) = \sqrt{-3 + 3} + 4 = \sqrt{0} + 4 = 0 + 4 = 4 So, y=4y = 4 when x=3x = -3.

  2. For x=2x = -2: f(2)=2+3+4=1+4=1+4=5f(-2) = \sqrt{-2 + 3} + 4 = \sqrt{1} + 4 = 1 + 4 = 5 So, y=5y = 5 when x=2x = -2.

  3. For x=1x = 1: f(1)=1+3+4=4+4=2+4=6f(1) = \sqrt{1 + 3} + 4 = \sqrt{4} + 4 = 2 + 4 = 6 So, y=6y = 6 when x=1x = 1.

  4. For x=6x = 6: f(6)=6+3+4=9+4=3+4=7f(6) = \sqrt{6 + 3} + 4 = \sqrt{9} + 4 = 3 + 4 = 7 So, y=7y = 7 when x=6x = 6.

Here are some related questions:

  1. What happens to f(x)f(x) as xx increases further?
  2. How does the function f(x)=x+3+4f(x) = \sqrt{x + 3} + 4 behave for negative values of xx?
  3. What is the domain of the function f(x)=x+3+4f(x) = \sqrt{x + 3} + 4?
  4. How would the function change if the constant added outside the square root was different?
  5. What is the range of f(x)=x+3+4f(x) = \sqrt{x + 3} + 4?

Tip: When dealing with square root functions, always check that the expression under the square root is non-negative to ensure the function is defined.
