Math Problem Statement

What are the domain and range of the function given here {(14,−6),(−12,6),(9,−1),(4,−6)}

Solution

Given the function defined by the set of points {(14,6),(12,6),(9,1),(4,6)}\{(14, -6), (-12, 6), (9, -1), (4, -6)\}, we can determine the domain and range as follows:

Domain:

  • The domain of a function consists of all the input values (the first components in the ordered pairs).
  • From the set of points:
    • The inputs (or xx-values) are 1414, 12-12, 99, and 44.

Thus, the domain is {14,12,9,4}\{14, -12, 9, 4\}.

Range:

  • The range of a function consists of all the output values (the second components in the ordered pairs).
  • From the set of points:
    • The outputs (or yy-values) are 6-6, 66, 1-1, and 6-6.

Thus, the range is {6,6,1}\{-6, 6, -1\}.

(Note that 6-6 is repeated, but it only needs to be listed once in the range.)

Here are 5 related questions to explore:

  1. How do you find the domain and range for a continuous function like f(x)=x2f(x) = x^2?
  2. What would be the domain and range of the function g(x)=x2g(x) = \sqrt{x-2}?
  3. Can a function have the same range but different domains? Give an example.
  4. What is the range of a linear function h(x)=2x+3h(x) = 2x + 3?
  5. How would the domain and range change if the function includes all real numbers within specific intervals?

Tip: The domain is the set of all possible input values for which the function is defined, while the range is the set of all possible outputs the function can produce.
