Math Problem Statement

Write the domain and range of the function using interval notation based on the graph provided.

Solution

The graph provided shows a function with certain domain and range that we need to determine using interval notation.

Domain:

The domain of a function represents all the x-values for which the function is defined. From the graph, the function appears to start at x=8x = -8 and ends at x=3x = 3, meaning the function is defined between these x-values. At both x=8x = -8 and x=3x = 3, the function includes the points, as indicated by closed (filled) circles at these positions.

Thus, the domain in interval notation is: [8,3]\boxed{[-8, 3]}

Range:

The range of a function represents all the y-values that the function attains. From the graph, the lowest point is at y=10y = -10, and the highest point is at y=4y = 4. The function includes both of these values as there are filled points at these positions.

Thus, the range in interval notation is: [10,4]\boxed{[-10, 4]}

Tip:

When interpreting graphs for domain and range, always look for filled or open circles at the endpoints to see if those values are included or excluded.
