Answer

(a) All points in 2-space where y \geq 2 (b) All points in 3-space where $x^2+y^2+z^2 \leq 25$ (c) All points in 3-space

Work Step by Step

(a) $f(x,y) = xe^{-\sqrt{y+2}}$ We find the domain $y+2 \geq 0$ $y \geq -2$ Domain = $\{x,y)\in R^2|y\geq-2\}$ The domain is the set of points $(x,y)$ so that $y$ is greater or equal to $-2$. (b) $f(x, y, z) = \sqrt {25 − x^2 − y^2 − z^2}$ We find the domain: $25 − x^2 − y^2 − z^2 \geq 0$ $x^2 + y^2 + z^2 \leq 0$ Domain = $\{(x,y,z)\in R^3| x^2 + y^2 + z^2 \leq 25\}$ The domain is the set of point $(x,y,z)$ inside or on the sphere of center $(0,0,0)$ and radius $5$. (c) $f(x, y, z) = e^{xyz}$ We find the domain. Here $f$ is defined for all real values of $x, y$ and $z$. Domain = $\{(x,y,z)\in R^3\}$
