What is the domain of \(f(x,y)=\sqrt x+\ln y\)?
Choose one option.
A \(x>0\) and \(y>0\) B \(x\ge0\) and \(y\ge0\) C \(x\ge0\) and \(y>0\) D \(x\ge0\) and \(y\ne0\)
Show answer
← Back to the question
Explanation The root requires \(x\ge0\) (zero is allowed) and the logarithm requires \(y>0\) (zero is not). Each condition involves only one variable.
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.
\[f:D\subseteq\mathbb R^n\to\mathbb R\]
