Problem

Consider the function \(f(x) = \sqrt{x} \) and \(g(x) = x^2 \). Find the domain and range of \((f+g)(x)\), \((f-g)(x)\), \((fg)(x)\), and \((f/g)(x)\).

Answer

For \(f/g\), the domain is all \(x\) such that \(x\geq 0\) and \(x\neq 0\). The range is \(y\geq 0\).

Steps

Step 1 :For \(f+g\), the domain is all \(x\) such that \(x\geq 0\) and \(x\in\mathbb{R}\). The range is \(y\geq 0\).

Step 2 :For \(f-g\), the domain is all \(x\) such that \(x\geq 0\) and \(x\in\mathbb{R}\). The range is \(y\leq 0\).

Step 3 :For \(fg\), the domain is all \(x\) such that \(x\geq 0\) and \(x\in\mathbb{R}\). The range is \(y\geq 0\).

Step 4 :For \(f/g\), the domain is all \(x\) such that \(x\geq 0\) and \(x\neq 0\). The range is \(y\geq 0\).
