Math Problem Statement

What is the range of the function shown on the graph above?

What is the range of the function shown on the graph above?

Solution

To determine the range of the function shown in the graph, we first observe the vertical extent (along the y-axis) of the line segment.

Here are the key details from the graph:

  1. Endpoints: The graph shows a line segment, which appears to have two endpoints:

    • The left endpoint is at approximately (-8, -4).
    • The right endpoint is at approximately (8, 6).
  2. Range: The range of a function is the set of all possible values of yy (output values) for the given function.

From the endpoints:

  • The lowest yy-value is 4-4.
  • The highest yy-value is 66.

Thus, the range of the function is: [4,6][-4, 6]

  2. What is the slope of the line in this graph?
  3. How can you find the equation of this line using the two endpoints?
  4. How is the range different from the domain in a function?
  5. What are some methods to determine if a function is increasing or decreasing?

Tip: When looking for the range of a function, always focus on the vertical spread of the graph along the yy-axis.
