(1 point) Enter Yes or No in each answer space below to indicate whether the corresponding equation defines y as a function of x.
1. x2 + (y - 4)2 = 16
2. 2[x] + y = 6
3. 8 + x = y2
4. x + 9 = y2

Respuesta :

Using the function concept, it is found that:

1. No

2. Yes

3. No

4. No

--------------------------------

  • The function definition states that: y will be a function of x if for each value of x, there is only one corresponding value of y.

--------------------------------

Item 1:

Supposing x = 0:

[tex]0^2 + (y - 4^2) = 16[/tex]

[tex]y^2 - 8y + 16 = 16[/tex]

[tex]y^2 - 8y = 0 \rightarrow y(y - 8) = 0[/tex]

Two solutions, so No.

--------------------------------

Item 2:

Supposing x = 1:

[tex]2|1| + y = 6[/tex]

[tex]y = 4[/tex]

One solution, so Yes.

--------------------------------

Item 3:

Supposing x = 1:

[tex]y^2 = 8 + 1 = 9[/tex]

[tex]y = \pm \sqrt{9} = \pm 3[/tex]

Two solutions, so No.

--------------------------------

Item 4:

Supposing x = 0:

[tex]y^2 = 9 + 0 = 9[/tex]

[tex]y = \pm \sqrt{9} = \pm 3[/tex]

Two solutions, so No.
