Let Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wiki.ubc.ca/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle f(x)={\frac {\log(x)}{\sqrt {x}}}} . Note Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wiki.ubc.ca/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \log(x)} is the natural logarithmic function, also denoted Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wiki.ubc.ca/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \ln(x)}

Make sure you understand the problem fully: What is the question asking you to do? Are there specific conditions or constraints that you should take note of? How will you know if your answer is correct from your work only? Can you rephrase the question in your own words in a way that makes sense to you? |
|
If you are stuck, check the hint below. Consider it for a while. Does it give you a new idea on how to approach the problem? If so, try it! |
Hint |
|---|
|
Check the domains of each part of the function. |
|
Checking a solution serves two purposes: helping you if, after having used the hint, you still are stuck on the problem; or if you have solved the problem and would like to check your work.

The domain of Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wiki.ubc.ca/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \log(x)} is Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wiki.ubc.ca/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle x>0} , while the domain of Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wiki.ubc.ca/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle {\sqrt {x}}} is Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wiki.ubc.ca/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle x\geq 0} . So for their ratio to be defined, we need Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wiki.ubc.ca/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle x>0} and the domain of Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wiki.ubc.ca/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle f} is Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wiki.ubc.ca/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle (0,\infty )} . |
