Answer:

Domain: All real numbers Range: (-∞, -31/8]

Explanation:

Since the parent function for this equasion is y=x^2, you know that the graph wil be parabolic in shape. All parabolic functions have a domain of all real numbers. Now when you rewrite the graph in vertex form, you will see that the top vertex is at y=-31/8, this is going to restrict the range to be (-∞, -31/8]. I have provided a graph using the app PhotoMath.
