What is the range of y=sqrt(16-x^2)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Sqrt can never be negative.
\n" ); document.write( "Solve 16-x^2 >= 0
\n" ); document.write( "(x-4)(x+4) <= 0
\n" ); document.write( "Draw a number line and plot x = -4 and x = 4
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Test a value in each of the three intervals:
\n" ); document.write( "(x-4)(x+4) < 0
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "If x = -10 ; -*- < 0 ; false
\n" ); document.write( "If x = 0 ; -*+ < 0 ; true, so solutions in [-4 , 4]
\n" ); document.write( "If x = +10 ; +*+ < 0 ; false\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "=====================================
\n" ); document.write( "Range: -4 <= x <= 4
\n" ); document.write( "========================
