Question
I need to restrict the domains of radical functions with even indices, but these restrictions are not necessary when indices are odd.
Step 1
A radical function is a function that involves a root, such as a square root, cube root, etc. The index of the root determines the type of radical function. For example, a square root has an index of 2, a cube root has an index of 3, and so on. Show more…

Rational Numbers as Exponents
Explain, using Theorems 4, 5. 7, and 9, why the function is continuous at every number in its domain. State the domain. $$R(x)=x^{2}+\sqrt{2 x-1}$$

Continuity
Determine the domain of the function and prove that it is continuous on its domain using Theorems I-5. $$ f(x)=\left(x^{4}+1\right)^{3 / 2} $$
