Math Problem Statement
The entire graph of the function g is shown in the figure below. Write the domain and range of g using interval notation.
Solution
Let's analyze the graph of the function and determine its domain and range.
Domain:
The domain of a function is the set of all possible input values (or -values) that the function can take.
From the graph:
- The graph starts at and ends at .
- It includes the endpoints, as there are closed circles at and .
Thus, the domain is:
Range:
The range of a function is the set of all possible output values (or -values) that the function can produce.
From the graph:
- The lowest point is at , and the highest point is at .
- Both endpoints are included in the graph.
Thus, the range is:
Both the domain and the range of the function are written in interval notation as .

- How do you determine the domain and range of a piecewise function?
- What happens to the domain and range when the graph has open endpoints?
- How would the domain change if there were vertical asymptotes in the graph?
- Can a function have multiple disjoint intervals for its range?
- What is the difference between continuous and discrete domains?
Tip: To determine the domain, always focus on the -axis; for the range, focus on the -axis of the graph.
