Math Problem Statement

Find the domain of the function defined by the table below. Express your answer as a set of numbers. | x | 4 | 6 | 7 | |---|---|---|---| | y | 8 | -3 | 0 |

Solution

To solve the problem:

Question:

Find the domain of the function defined by the table below.

x467
y8-30

Solution:

The domain of a function is the set of all possible input values (x-values) for which the function is defined.

From the table, the x-values are: {4,6,7}\{ 4, 6, 7 \}

Final Answer:

The domain is: {4,6,7}\{ 4, 6, 7 \}

Let me know if you'd like further clarification or assistance!

Expanding Your Learning:

  1. What is the range of this function?
  2. How is the domain different for continuous versus discrete functions?
  3. How do you determine a function's domain when given its equation instead of a table?
  4. What happens to the domain when the table includes repeated x-values?
  5. Can the domain ever be infinite? If so, under what conditions?

Tip: Always focus on the x-values for the domain and ensure no undefined inputs exist, like division by zero or square roots of negative numbers.
