Domain and Range of a Function - Exercise (4.3) :Solutions

How to Determine the Domain of a Function

When the domain of a function is not specified, then assume that it is the set of all possible real numbers for which the function makes sense.

ပေးထားသော function တစ်ခုအတွက် domain သတ်မှတ်ပေးထားခြင်း မရှိလျှင် function ၏ သတ်မှတ်ချက်ကို ပြေလည်စေသော အစုဝင်အားလုံးပါသည် ကိန်းစစ်အစုသည် အဆိုပါ function ၏ domain ဖြစ်သည်ဟု မှတ်ယူရမည်။

Equality of Functions

Two functions $f$ and $g$ are equal (and we write $f=g$) if and only if

1. $f$ and $g$ have the same domain, and

2. $f(c)$ = $g(c)$ for each element $c$ in the domain.

Function နှစ်ခု $f$ နှင့် $g$ ၏ domain များတူညီကြပြီး domain ထဲရှိ အစုဝင် $c$ တိုင်းအတွက် $f(c)= g(c)$ [$c$ ၏ image တူညီလျှင်] ဖြစ်လျှင် $f$ နှင့် $g$ သည် တူညီသော function များ ဖြစ်ကြသည်။
