  2. 0 to infinity

  3. -1 to 1

  4. -infinity to infinity
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The Theil Index ranges from 0 to 1. A value of 0 indicates perfect equality, while a value of 1 indicates perfect inequality.

The Hoover Index ranges from 0 to 1, with 0 representing perfect equality and 1 representing perfect inequality.

Multiple choice

In the context of Differential Equations in Optimization, what does the term "functional" refer to?

  1. A function whose domain is a set of functions

  2. A function whose range is a set of functions

  3. A function whose domain and range are both sets of functions

  4. A function whose domain is a set of real numbers
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

In Differential Equations in Optimization, a functional is a function that takes a function as its input and returns a real number as its output.

Multiple choice

What is the domain of the function f(x) = sqrt(x - 1)?

  1. [0, ∞)

  2. [-1, ∞)

  3. [1, ∞)

  4. (-∞, 1]
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

The domain of a function is the set of all possible input values for which the function is defined. Since the expression sqrt(x - 1) is defined only for non-negative values of x - 1, the domain of f(x) = sqrt(x - 1) is [1, ∞).

Multiple choice

What is the range of the function f(x) = 2x + 1?

  1. [-∞, ∞)

  2. [0, ∞)

  3. (-∞, 0]

  4. [-1, ∞)
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The range of a function is the set of all possible output values that the function can produce. Since the function f(x) = 2x + 1 is a linear function with no restrictions on the input values, its range is the set of all real numbers, which is [-∞, ∞).
