The graph provided in the image is an absolute value function with a 'V' shape. Determine the domain and range.

Solution

The image provided shows the graph of an absolute value function, which forms a "V" shape. The turning point of the graph is at the origin (0, 0). Let's analyze the domain and range of this graph:

Domain:

The graph stretches horizontally across the entire x-axis. There are no restrictions on the values of xx, so the domain is all real numbers.

  • Domain: x-\infty \leq x \leq \infty

Range:

The lowest point on the graph is y=0y = 0, and the graph extends upward indefinitely. Therefore, the range starts at 0 and goes to infinity.

  • Range: 0y0 \leq y \leq \infty

Final answers for the blanks:

  1. Domain:
    • Blank 1: "-inf"
    • Blank 2: "inf"
  2. Range:
    • Blank 3: "0"
    • Blank 4: "inf"

Would you like further details on how to analyze such functions?

Here are 5 related questions for further exploration:

  1. What is the equation of the absolute value function in this graph?
  2. How do you find the vertex of an absolute value function graph?
  3. What is the slope of the lines on either side of the vertex?
  4. How does the graph of an absolute value function change when the function is shifted horizontally or vertically?
  5. Can the range of an absolute value function ever include negative numbers?

Tip: The domain of absolute value functions is always all real numbers, but the range is limited by the vertex and direction of the "V" shape.
