3. Name the type of functions for each.

Question

a) g(x) =(3√(sin x))-8^3

b) h(t) = (3t^3 -7)/(√(x+2))

Answer 1

I would call no(1) a trigonometric function

And (Q2) a rational function......

Provided that x≠-2 for Question 2

Answer 2

actually, Q1 and Q2 suffer from the same problem. Rational functions are p(x)/q(x) where p and q are polynomials, not square roots of polynomials.

So, while Q1 involves a trigonometric function, g(x) is not actually a trig function. it is a function of a trig function, just as h(x) is a function of a rational function.

Answer 3

Quick question what would rather call h(t)???

Answer 4

Aaaaah spotted it already last line....thanks
