Question 150910: Hello all I would like your help one more time. I've got most of what my teacher asked us to do but I am stuck on the following the task is to:
Evaluate the functions for the values of x given as 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16. Describe the differences in the rate at which each function changes with increasing values of x. f(x) = x2 - 3x + 2
f(x) = 2x3 + 7x2 - x - 1
f(x) = 10x
f(x) = ln x (I don't know if this is (one n x) or the letter (l)n x, whatever that means)
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!

Question 152047: A circus performer is juggling clubs while standing on stilts. He releases a club from a point 8ft above the ground with the initial vertical velocity of 10 ft per second.
The vertical motion mode is h = -16t2(It's t to the second power) + vt + s where he is the height of an object in feet, t is the time seconds, v is the initial vertical velocity in feet per second, and s is the initial height in feet.
a) Write an equation in function notation that models the height (in feet) of the club as a function of time (in seconds).
b) Make a table of the time in the air and the heights of the club from 0.1 seconds to 1.5 seconds.
c) Graph the function and label the vertex.
d) How long after the club is released does the club reach its maximum height? What was the maximum height?
e) How long after the club is released will it return to the ground? How do you know this?

also like in this question
f(x)= x-1/x-4 , given that x is not equal to 4
here doman is = set of real nos except 4
and range is set of all real nos except -1<< again from where did -1 come from.
