Exercise · ZW-FUNCTION-OF-SEVERAL-VARIABLES-009 · ★★★ Advanced

What is the domain of \(f(x,y)=\sqrt x+\ln y\)?

Choose one option.

Show answer
  • C. \(x\ge0\) and \(y>0\)

Explanation

The root requires \(x\ge0\) (zero is allowed) and the logarithm requires \(y>0\) (zero is not). Each condition involves only one variable.

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.

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