Hi Need help in understanding the solution to the following Question For which of the following functions is f(a+b) = f(a) + f(b) for all positive numbers of a & b. 1. f(x) = x squared 2. f(x) = x + 1 3. f(x) = sq root of x 4. f(x) = 2/x 5. f(x) = -3x The amswer is no.5. Need to understand why ...

You are correct, Brent! Sorry - I added an extra x...thanks for correcting and answering the question. I'm clear now:) Thanks again, B Even if we remove the extra x, x=0 cannot be a valid solution for the quadratic,since division by zero is undefined. After removing the extra x, we have:- x(x-5+6/x...
