Question

What is the domain of the function shown in the mapping?

a) x
b) y=-9, -6, 0, 2,4
c) x = -9, -6, -5, -3, 0, 1, 2, 4, 6
d) {y y = -9, -6, -5, -3, 0, 1, 2, 4, 6}

Answer 1

Without the mapping diagram, it's not possible to accurately determine the domain of the function. The domain typically refers to all the input values (x-values) the function can accept. More context from the mapping diagram is needed to choose the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student's question asks about the domain of a function represented in a mapping diagram. The domain of a function is the set of all possible input values (x-values) for which the function is defined. Option (a) x = -5, -3, 1, 2, 6 represents a list of inputs to the function. Without knowing more details from the mapping diagram itself, this list could be the possible domain since it is a collection of x-values. However, the correct answer cannot be determined without more context from the mapping diagram provided in the question.

Based on the information given in the Math practice tests and definitions, the domain can also refer to things like student majors, number of classes taken, or amount of money spent, but here it specifically refers to x-values of a mathematical function.
