Function Domains and Special Cases
This section delves into the specific domain calculations for various function types, essential for ejercicios interpretación gráficas 4o eso.
Definition: The domain of a function is the set of all possible input values (x-values) for which the function is defined.
Domain rules for different functions:
- Radical functions with even indices require non-negative radicands
- Logarithmic functions require positive arguments
- Exponential functions typically have domain R
- Rational functions exclude values making denominator zero
Example: For f = √, the domain is [-3,∞) because x+3 ≥ 0
Vocabulary: Radicand - The expression under a radical symbol
