Atmospheric pressure The pressure of Earth’s atmosphere at sea level is approximately 1000 millibars and decreases exponentially with elevation. At an elevation of 30,000 ft (approximately the altitude of Mt. Everest), the pressure is one-third the sea-level pressure. At what elevation is the pressure half the sea-level pressure? At what elevation is it 1% of the sea-level pressure?

On what interval is the formula d/dx (tanh⁻¹ x) = 1/(1 - x²) valid?
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Step 1: Recall the domain of the inverse hyperbolic tangent function, tanh⁻¹(x). The function tanh⁻¹(x) is defined for values of x in the interval (-1, 1), as the hyperbolic tangent function tanh(x) maps the real numbers to the interval (-1, 1).
Step 2: Analyze the derivative formula d/dx (tanh⁻¹ x) = 1/(1 - x²). For this formula to be valid, the denominator (1 - x²) must not be zero, as division by zero is undefined.
Step 3: Solve the inequality 1 - x² ≠ 0 to determine where the formula is valid. This simplifies to x² ≠ 1, which means x ≠ ±1.
Step 4: Combine the domain of tanh⁻¹(x) and the restriction from the derivative formula. The domain of tanh⁻¹(x) is (-1, 1), and the derivative formula is valid as long as x ≠ ±1. Since ±1 are already excluded from the domain of tanh⁻¹(x), the formula is valid on the entire interval (-1, 1).
Step 5: Conclude that the interval on which the formula d/dx (tanh⁻¹ x) = 1/(1 - x²) is valid is (-1, 1).

Inverse Hyperbolic Functions
The inverse hyperbolic function tanh⁻¹ x, also known as the hyperbolic arctangent, is defined as the inverse of the hyperbolic tangent function. It is used to find the value of x such that tanh(y) = x. Understanding its domain and range is crucial for determining where its derivative is valid.

Derivative of Inverse Functions
The derivative of an inverse function can be found using the formula d/dx (f⁻¹(x)) = 1/(f'(f⁻¹(x))). For tanh⁻¹ x, the derivative is given as 1/(1 - x²). This relationship highlights how the behavior of the original function influences the derivative of its inverse.

Domain of the Derivative
The expression 1/(1 - x²) is valid as long as the denominator is not zero, which occurs when x² = 1. Therefore, the derivative is defined for all x except x = 1 and x = -1. This means the interval of validity for the derivative of tanh⁻¹ x is (-1, 1), where the function remains continuous and differentiable.
