F(x) = find the domain

x >= -7  ................(1a)

x >= 3   ...............(2a1)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) =    .............(0)

find the domain.

To find the (real) domain, we need to ensure that each term remains a real number.

which means the following conditions must be met

x+7 >= 0  .....................(1)

AND

x^2+2x-15 >= 0 ..........(2)

To satisfy (1),  x >= -7  .....................(1a) by transposition of (1)

To satisfy (2), we need first to find the roots of (2)

factor (2)

(x+5)(x-3) >= 0

This implis

(x+5) >= 0 AND (x-3) >= 0.....................(2a)

OR

(x+5) <= 0 AND (x-3) <= 0 ...................(2b)

(2a) is satisfied with x >= 3   ...............(2a1)

(2b) is satisfied with x <= -5 ................(2b1)

Combine the conditions (1a), (2a1), and (2b1),

x >= -7  ................(1a)

AND

(

x >= 3   ...............(2a1)

OR

x <= -5 ................(2b1)

)

which expands to

(1a) and (2a1)   OR  (1a) and (2b1)

( x >= -7 and x >= 3 )  OR ( x >= -7 and x <= -5 )

Simplifying, we have

x >= 3  OR ( -7 <= x <= -5 )

Referring to attached figure, the domain is indicated in dark (purple), the red-brown and white regions satisfiy only one of the two conditions.

step-by-step explanation:

{x = -1/2 ,   y = -1

step-by-step explanation:

solve the following system:

{2 x + y = -2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

in the first equation, look to solve for y:

{2 x + y = -2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

subtract 2 x from both sides:

{y = -2 x - 2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

substitute y = -2 x - 2 into the second equation:

{y = -2 x - 2

{10 x - 3 (-2 x - 2) = -2

10 x - 3 (-2 x - 2) = (6 x + 6) + 10 x = 16 x + 6:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x + 6 = -2

in the second equation, look to solve for x:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x + 6 = -2

subtract 6 from both sides:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x = -8

divide both sides by 16:

{y = -2 x - 2

{x = -1/2

substitute x = -1/2 into the first equation:

{y = -1

{x = -1/2
