Question

NO LINKS!! Please help me with these graphs​

Answer 1

1. Domain: [-4, 3] Range: [2, 5]

2. Domain: (∞, 2] Range: [2, ∞)

3. Domain: (-∞, ∞) Range: (-∞, ∞)

Explanation:

Domain: The set of all possible input values (x-values).

Range: The set of all possible output values (y-values).

An open circle indicates the value is not included in the interval.

A closed circle indicates the value is included in the interval.

An arrow shows that the function continues indefinitely in that direction.

Note: Assume that each square on the given graphs is 1 unit.

Question 1

There are closed circles at both endpoints of the line: (-4, 2) and (3, 5).

Therefore, the values are the endpoints of the intervals.

• Domain: [-4, 3]
• Range: [2, 5]

Question 2

There is a closed circle at (2, 2).

There is an arrow at one endpoint, so as x → -∞, y → ∞.

• Domain: (∞, 2]
• Range: [2, ∞)

Question 3

There are arrows at the endpoints of the line.

Therefore, the domain and range are unrestricted.

• Domain: (-∞, ∞)
• Range: (-∞, ∞)

Answer 2

See below.

Explanation:

Each of the graphs shows a line segment, but because of the arrowheads, each situation is different.

Left graph.

The line segment has a point at each end. The graph is of just the line segment shown.

The lowest x-coordinate is -4.

The greatest x-coordinate is 3.

The lowest y-coordinate is 2.

The greatest y-coordinate is 5.

Domain: -4 ≤ x ≤ 3

Range: 2 ≤ x ≤ 5

In interval notation:

Domain: [-4, 3]

Range: [2, 5]

Middle graph.

The line segment has a point at the right endpoint but an arrowhead at the left. The graph is a ray that starts at point (2, 2), goes through point (-4, 5) and keeps going forever past point (-4, 5) in the direction of the segment.

The lowest x-coordinate is -∞.

The greatest x-coordinate is 2.

The lowest y-coordinate is 2.

The greatest y-coordinate is ∞.

Domain: x ≤ 2

Range: x ≥ 2

In interval notation:

Domain: (-∞, 2]

Range: [2, ∞)

Right graph.

The line segment has an arrowhead at each end. The graph is a line that includes the line segment shown. A line has no beginning and no end; therefore, it goes on in both directions forever.

The lowest x-coordinate is -∞.

The greatest x-coordinate is ∞.

The lowest y-coordinate is -∞.

The greatest y-coordinate is ∞.

Domain: all real numbers

Range: all real numbers

In interval notation:

Domain: (-∞, ∞)

Range: (-∞, ∞)
