Let y = f(x) be a function with domain D = [−6, 10] and range R = [−8, 12]. Find the domain D and range R for each function. Assume f(6) = 12 and f(10) = −8. (Enter your answers using interval notation.)

a) y = −2f(x)
b) y = |f(x)|
c) y = f(x + 2) − 3

Answer:

a.Domain ,D=[-6,10]

Range ,R=[-24,16]

b.Domain,D=[-6,10]

Range=[8,12]

c.Domain=[-4,12]

Range=[-11,9]

Explanation:

We are given that
y=f(x) be a function with domain D=[-6,10] and range R=[-8,12].

Assume f(-6)=12, f(10)=-8

a.
y=-2f(x)

We have to find the domain D and range R of the function.

Substitute f(-6)=12 then we get


y=-2(120=-24

Substitute f(10)=-8[/tex]


y=-2(-8)=16

Domain remain same like domain of given function.

Domain ,D=[-6,10]

Range ,R=[-24,16]

b.
y=\mid f(x)\mid

We have to find the value of domain and range.


y=\mid f(-6)\mid=\mid 12\mid=12


y=\mid f(10)\mid=\mid -8\mid=8

Domain,D=[-6,10]

Range=[8,12]

c.
y=f(x+2)-3

Substitute x=-6 then


y=f(-6+2)-3=f(-4)-3

Substitute x=10

Then, we get
y=f(10+2)-3=f(12)-3

Domain=[-4,12]

f(-6)=12 then , we get


y=12-3=9

Substitute x=10

then, we get
y=-8-3=-11

Range of f(x)=Range f(x+2)

Range=[-11,9]

a) The domain remains the same.
Since, in y = - 2 f(x) , the y is whats being multiplied and therefore changed, not the x or domain.
Therefore D[-6,10]
The range is what changes by a factor of -2.
If the original range was [-8,12], then the new one is
[(-8 x -2),(12 x -2)] = [16 , -24].

However, you must flip the numbers to make the interval true, giving you R [-24,16]
