Math Problem Statement

Use the graph to find the following properties of the function f, such as domain, range, intercepts, intervals of increase or decrease, relative minimum, and symmetry.

Solution

From the graph, we are tasked with identifying various properties of the function ff. Let's start with part (a), which asks for the domain of ff in interval notation.

Domain of ff:

  • The domain represents all the possible xx-values for which the function is defined.
  • In the graph, we can see that the parabola extends from x=6x = -6 to x=6x = 6 on the horizontal axis, without any breaks or gaps.

Thus, the domain of ff is: [6,6]\boxed{[-6, 6]}

Would you like help with any of the other parts, or should we move on to the next one?

Here are 5 questions that expand upon the current understanding:

  1. What is the range of ff based on the graph?
  2. How do you find the xx-intercepts of a function?
  3. What is the significance of the intervals on which ff is increasing or decreasing?
  4. How do you determine if a function is even, odd, or neither?
  5. Can you explain how to find the relative minimum from the graph?

Tip: The domain of a function refers to the complete set of input values (typically xx-values) for which the function is defined. Always check for gaps, holes, or restrictions in the graph to determine the domain.
