Exercise · ZW-FUNCTION-OF-SEVERAL-VARIABLES-003 · ★☆☆ Basic

What is the domain of \(f(x,y)=\sqrt{4-x^2-y^2}\)?

Choose one option.

Show answer
  • B. The disk \(x^2+y^2\le4\)

Explanation

The root requires \(4-x^2-y^2\ge0\), that is \(x^2+y^2\le4\): the closed disk of radius \(2\).

Review the concept: Function of several variables

A function of several variables \(f\) assigns to each point \(\mathbf x=(x_1,\dots,x_n)\) of a set \(D\subseteq\mathbb R^n\), its domain, a single real number.

\[f:D\subseteq\mathbb R^n\to\mathbb R\]
