Example Question #91 : Functions And Graphs
What is the range of the following equation ?
all real numbers
all real numbers
Range is the value generated from a real value. is a linear function therefore any values will always generate real values. Answer is all real numbers.
Example Question #63 : Domain And Range
What is the range of the following equation ?
all real numbers
Range is the value generated from a real value. In a quadratic equation, the graph is a parabola with the graph being symmetric. Since the is positive, we can determine the smallest value. By determining the vertex of the graph, this will help us with the answer. The vertex of a quadratic equation is in which represent the values of a quadratic equation in form.
, Now let's plug into the vertex equation.
This is only the coordinate. We need to plug back into the quadratic equation to get the value.
, . This means that the lowest range value of that quadratic equation is .
Answer is
Example Question #64 : Domain And Range
What is the range of the following function ?
all real numbers except
all real numbers
all real numbers except
Range is the value generated from a real value. Because this function is a fractional expression, we need to check the denominator. Remember, the denominator must not be zero. This would make the function undefined.
We only need to look at . Since we know it can't equal zero, we set that expression to zero to determine the -value that makes this function undefined.
Subtract on both sides.
Let's check two different values such as and . The reason I pick these values is because they approach from both directions. By doing this, we can check the ranges.
If , we get a small negative value. When we divide a small negative value, the answer is negative infinity. The same applies when . We will get a small positive value and when we divide a small positive value, we get infinity. Finally, let's check if is a large negative and large positive number.
If we get an extremely small positive number and if , we get an extremely small negative number. It seems like we never reach zero BUT JUST APPROACH IT. Therefore, the range is all real numbers except .
Example Question #92 : Functions And Graphs
What is the domain of the following equation ?
all real numbers
all real numbers
Domain is finding the acceptable values that will make the function generate real values. is a linear function therefore any values will always generate real values. Answer is all real numbers.
Example Question #93 : Functions And Graphs
What is the domain of the following equation ?
all real numbers
all real numbers
Domain is finding the acceptable values that will make the function generate real values. is a quadratic function therefore any values will always generate real values. Answer is all real numbers.
Example Question #94 : Functions And Graphs
What is the domain of the following function ?
all real numbers
all real numbers
Domain is finding the acceptable values that will make the function generate real values. is an absolute value function therefore any values will always generate real values. Answer is all real numbers.
Example Question #61 : Domain And Range
What is the domain of the following function ?

Domain is finding the acceptable values that will make the function generate real values. Because this function is a fractional expression, we need to check the denominator. Remember, the denominator must not be zero. This would make the function undefined.
We only need to look at . Since we know it can't equal zero, we set that expression to zero to determine the -value that makes this function undefined.
Add on both sides.
Take the square root of both sides. Remember it can also be negative.
Example Question #69 : Domain And Range
What is the domain of the function ?
Domain is finding the acceptable values that will make the function generate real values. Because we have a radical, we have to remember the smallest possible value inside the radical is zero. However, because there's a fraction inside the radical, we should focus on that first. Remember, the denominator must not be zero. This would make the function undefined.
Subtract on both sides.
Let's check values greater than this for the radical function. Let's pick .
This is good as this value is greater than zero. Let's pick a value less than such as .
This is not good as this value is less than zero and that's not acceptable in radical conditions. Therefore our answer will be . Remember is not included. This makes the denominator zero and the whole function becomes undefined.
Example Question #71 : Domain And Range
Which of the following functions matches this domain: ?
Because the domain is giving us a wide range of values, we can easily eliminate the fractional function as it only isolates a single value. We can eliminate as it means I am restricted to as my domain but I am looking for domain values greater than . This leaves us with the radical functions.
We have to remember the smallest possible value inside the radical is zero. Anything less means we will be dealing with imaginary numbers.
, This means the domain is which doesn't match our domain so this is wrong.
, . This means the domain is which doesn't match our domain since we want to EXCLUDE so this is wrong.
Since this is fractional expression with a radical in the denominator, we need to remember the bottom can't be zero and just set that denominator to equal . Square both sides to get . This actually means is not acceptable but any values greater than that is good. This is the correct answer.
