Don't know what you've graphed either Melody.

 

Anyway,

 

\(\displaystyle e^{x}-3e^{-x} + 2=(e^{2x}+2e^{x}-3)/e^{x}\)

 

\(\displaystyle =(e^{x}-1)(e^{x}+3)/e^{x}\),

 

and that will be greater than zero whenever

 

\(\displaystyle e^{x}-1 > 0\) .

 

That is, whenever x > 0.

e^x-3e^(-x)+2>0 {nl} how can i solve this disequation?

 

\(f(x)=e^x-3e^{-x}+2>0\)

 

\(x\geq 0,54933\)   (laut Wertetabelle MatheGrafix)

Excuse me, I have mistakenly entered this function:

 

\(f(x)=e^x-3e^{-x}>0\)

 

Here the graph of the correct function:

 

\(e^x-3e^{-x}+2>0\)

 

Guest two has right

 

\(e^x-1>0\)

 

That is whenever \(x>0\)

I'd do it by graphing too but I do not know what asinus has graphed???

 

I use Desmos Graphing Calculator for my graaphing - it is an only calculator.

I graphed     

\(y=e^x-3e^{-x}+2\)

 

and this is what I got.

So I can see that this is positive when      x > 0.663    (approximately)

Hi, Melody

my graphing calculator is

https://www.google.de/#q=mathegrafix+10

 

Calculated values of the function

 

\(f(x)=e^x-3e^{-x}+2>0\)

 

\(x=0.549307\)  \(f(x)=2.9641138\times10^-6\)      >0

\(x =0.549306\)  \(f(x)=-4.9998783\times10^-7\)  <0

\(x = 0.663000\)  \(f(x)=0.39469611\)                   >0

 

Greeting asinus :- )  laugh  !

Check the Desmos graph : https://www.desmos.com/calculator/mlfl2icxyf

 

It appears that this will be true when  x >  0

Looks like asinus has missed the 2 from the end of f(x).

i.e. working with exp(x) - 3exp(-x) rather than exp(x) - 3exp(-x) + 2.
