Math Problem Statement
Solution
To determine the domain and range from the graph provided in the image:
-
Domain: The domain is the set of all possible x-values for which the function is defined. In the graph, the function starts at and ends at . So the domain is the interval from to , written in interval notation as:
-
Range: The range is the set of all possible y-values that the function attains. From the graph, the y-values range from (at the lowest point) to (at the highest point). So, the range in interval notation is:
Let me know if you need more details or if you have any questions!
Here are some related questions to further your understanding:
- How do you find the domain and range of more complex functions?
- What does it mean when a function is continuous on its domain?
- Can a function have a domain with gaps (discontinuous)?
- How would the domain or range change if the graph included an open circle at an endpoint?
- What are some common types of functions with restricted domains (e.g., square root, rational)?
Tip: Always check both endpoints of the graph carefully, especially if they are open or closed, as this can affect the domain and range.
