This function is defined only for x-values for which 4 Ϫ 3x Ն 0. By solving this inequality, you can conclude that x Յ 43. So, the domain is the interval ͑Ϫ ϱ, 43͔. Now try Exercise 73. In Example 7(c), note that the domain of a function may be implied by the physical context. For instance, from the equation 4 V ϭ 3␲ r 3 you would have no reason to restrict r to positive values, but the physical context implies that a sphere cannot have a negative or zero radius. 4 Functions 45 Applications h r =4 r Example 8 The Dimensions of a Container You work in the marketing department of a soft-drink company and are experimenting with a new can for iced tea that is slightly narrower and taller than a standard can.
