Which of the following functions are sometimes ill-conditioned?
f(x) = sqrt(x), assuming x > 0
f(x) = log(x), assuming x>0
f(b) = A^{-1} b, where A is a positive definite matrix, b is a vector
O f(x) = x-1000
f(x) = x/1000
f(x) = sin(x)
f(x) = Ax, where A is a nonsingular matrix, x is a vector
f(x) = (1 + x/n)^n, where n is a positive integer, assuming |x| < 1
f(b) = A^{-1} b, where A is a nonsingular matrix, b is a vector
f(x) = cos(x)
f(x) = exp(x), assuming |x| < 1
