14. Define h(x) by

= ____________
ANSWER: 2

15. Does this equation determine y as a function of x? Explain.

ANSWER: No. Observe that , so . So, for instance, the input x = 0 has two outputs,
namely, y = 3 and y = –3. So, this equation cannot determine y as a function of x.

16. Does this equation determine y as a function of x? Explain.

ANSWER: Yes. Solve for y as follows:

Note that for any , there is exactly one output y. So, the equation determines y as a function of

x.
