Math Problem Statement
Write the range of the function using interval notation based on the given graph.
Solution
From the graph displayed in the image, we need to determine the range of the function using interval notation.
Observing the Graph:
- The graph is a semicircle-like curve with the endpoints clearly visible.
- On the vertical (y-axis), the lowest point of the curve is at y = -2, and the highest point of the curve is at y = 2.
Range of the Function:
The range is the set of all possible y-values the function takes. Here, it spans from y = -2 to y = 2, inclusive of both values (since the endpoints are part of the curve).
Thus, the range in interval notation is:

Related Questions:
- What is the domain of this function in interval notation?
- How would the range change if the curve were stretched vertically?
- Can a function with this shape still pass the vertical line test?
- What would the range look like if the graph were shifted up by 3 units?
- How do you find the range for functions that are not graphed, such as algebraic functions?
Tip:
Always carefully inspect the y-axis limits when determining the range, and check whether the endpoints of the graph are included (closed or open intervals).
