Math Problem Statement
Domain and range
Solution
To determine the domain and range of the piecewise linear function shown in the image, let's analyze the graph step by step.
Domain:
The domain of the function is the set of all possible values for which the function is defined. Based on the graph:
- The graph starts at and ends at .
- Therefore, the domain is all values between and , inclusive.
Domain:
Range:
The range of the function is the set of all possible values that the function can take.
- The lowest value on the graph is , which occurs at both and .
- The highest value occurs at when is between and .
Range:
Summary:
- Domain:
- Range:
