Math Problem Statement

Which of these functions have a domain of all real numbers?

Solution

The image shows a graph with three functions ff, gg, and hh. The question asks: "Which of these functions have a domain of all real numbers?"

Analysis:

  1. Function ff (blue curve): This appears to be a quadratic function (parabola) that opens upwards. Quadratic functions generally have a domain of all real numbers.
  2. Function gg (green line): This is a straight line, meaning it is a linear function. Linear functions also have a domain of all real numbers.
  3. Function hh (red curve): This function resembles a portion of a parabola. However, the curve is only drawn starting at some point and extends to the right, suggesting a restriction on the domain (possibly a square root function or something similar). Therefore, this function likely does not have a domain of all real numbers.

Conclusion:

  • Functions ff (blue) and gg (green) have a domain of all real numbers.
  • Function hh (red) does not.

Tip:

For any function, the domain consists of all the input values (x-values) where the function is defined, meaning it produces a real number result.
