Answer: y => 12

y is greater than or equal to 12

Step-by-step explanation:

So they give you the function of y = 2x + 4 and the domain of all real numbers is greater than or equal to 4.

In simple term, the domain is x => 4, x is greater than or equal to 4.

Using that we can substitute the x in the function by 4.

y = 2(4) + 4

y = 8 + 4

Which gave us the answer of 12.

Since the domain can be anything greater than 4 or 4. We can expect the

same for the range.

Then the range will be 12 or greater than 12. For example, 13, 14, 15, 16...

Ex. y = 2(5) + 4

y = 10 + 4

y = 14

Ex. y = 2(4.5) + 4

y = 9 + 4

y = 13
