Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's analyze the graph and answer the questions based on it.
3. For the graph below:
a. Domain:
The domain represents the set of all possible -values for which the function is defined. From the graph, the function starts at and ends at . So, the domain is:
b. Range:
The range is the set of all possible -values. The graph spans from to . So, the range is:
c. Decreasing:
The function decreases when the slope is negative (the graph moves downwards). This occurs from to . So, the function is decreasing on the interval:
d. Positive:
The function is positive when the graph is above the -axis (i.e., ). This happens between and . So, the function is positive on the interval:
e. x-intercepts:
The x-intercepts are the points where the graph crosses the -axis (i.e., where ). From the graph, the x-intercepts are at and . So, the x-intercepts are:
