Math Problem Statement
What is the domain of this function? (1, -1), (7, -7), (-10, -5), (-8, 5), (9, -7), (8, -1)
Solution
The domain of a function consists of all the input values (or "x-values") from the ordered pairs. In this case, the ordered pairs are given as:
To find the domain, we extract the x-values from each ordered pair:
Now, listing them in ascending order and removing any duplicates:
So, the correct domain is:
This corresponds to the option { -10, -8, 1, 7, 8, 9 } in the image.

Here are 5 related questions to consider:
- What is the range of this function?
- How do you determine if a relation is a function?
- What happens if two different x-values correspond to the same y-value?
- What does it mean for a function to have an undefined domain?
- How do you graph functions from a list of ordered pairs?
Tip: The domain represents all possible input values (x-values) that can be plugged into the function without causing any issues like division by zero or negative roots in even-degree radicals.
