Final answer:
The range of the composite function (u \u2218 v)(x), given u(x) = -2x^2 and v(x) = 1/x, is all real numbers greater than 0.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is asking for the range of the composite function (u \u2218 v)(x), where u(x) = -2x2 and v(x) = 1/x. To find the composite function, we substitute v(x) into u(x), getting u(v(x)) = u(1/x) = -2(1/x)2 = -2/x2. The range of -2/x2 is all real numbers greater than 0, because the function will never reach zero or negative values as x gets increasingly larger or smaller.
