Math Problem Statement
Determine the range of the following graph:
Solution
To determine the range of the given graph:
The range of a function is the set of all possible -values (outputs) that the function can take. Looking at the graph:
- The graph reaches a minimum value at approximately .
- The graph reaches a maximum value at at the open circle on the right end, indicating that is not included in the range.
- Therefore, the range of the graph is:
Would you like a detailed breakdown of how the minimum and maximum were determined or further explanation on the concept of the range?
Follow-Up Questions:
- What is the domain of the given graph?
- How do open and closed circles on graphs affect range and domain?
- Can you determine if this graph represents a function? Why or why not?
- What are the critical points (turning points) of the graph, and what do they signify?
- How would the range change if the maximum point at was closed (included)?
Tip:
When analyzing a graph, always check for open and closed endpoints to determine whether certain values are included in the domain or range.
