    Bivariate Functions: Domain, Range and Intercepts

    F(x,y) = x^2 + y^2 Are the xyz-intercepts all 0? The domain looks like it is all real #s. Is the range also all real #'s? I also see the graph is continuous on all points. Really I am just confused about the range.

    Domain, Range, Intercepts

    F (x,y) = 4 What are the domain, range and intercepts of this one? I am totally confused about this graph. Are there even any x and y intercepts? I don't think so, since I am assuming z = 4 and that would be the z-intercept, right?

    Find the Domain, Range, and Intercepts

    F(x,y) = cos (y) What would the domain of this be? (-infinity, +infinity)??? Is the range between -1 and 1? Are the z and x-intercepts 1 and does a y-intercept exist?

    Domain, range and intercepts

    I have graphed the following function: f(x,y) = 4-y^2 I am a little confused as to what the domain, range, and xyz-intercepts are. Can you help with that?

    Analytic function and equality

    Prove that if f(z) : H -> H is an analytic function from the upper-half plane to itself, then:|f(z) − f(z_0)|/|f(z) − (f(z_0))bar|<=|z − z_0|/|z − (z_0)bar| where z,z_0 are in H and |f'(z)|/Im(f(z))<=1/Im(z) where z is in H. When does equality hold?

    How do you use linear equation in business?

    In most businesses, increasing prices of their product can have a negative effect on the number of customers of the business.

They conducted a survey of their customers and found that they will lose approxima
