Answer:

D.Domain: (-∞,∞) Range: (-2,∞)

is the right answer.

Explanation:

Given is a function as


f(x) = 3|x+7|-2

This is an absolute value function hence the minimum value of

|x+2|=0

Hence the range cannot be below -2

For maximum no limit


Range = [-2,\infty)

Domain can be any real value

Hence option d is correct answer.
