Have you tried graphing that?
hartnn (hartnn):
what is f(x) when x= 0 ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i dont know...
OpenStudy (across):
You have to look for all \(x\) such that \(f(x)=0\).

f(0)=0+5?
hartnn (hartnn):
yeah, so u got y-intercept = 0+5 = 5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and isnt (1,8) and intercept too?
hartnn (hartnn):
why do u say so ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i dont know, i really dont understand this at all. im supposed to find the domain, the intercepts, the range and if f is continuous on its domain

hartnn (hartnn):
its x-intercept when y=0, and y intercept when x=0
so (1,8) cannot be a intercept
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so the only point is (0,5)?
hartnn (hartnn):
that is y-intercept
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x-int would be x+5=0?
hartnn (hartnn):
u need to see when that function goes to 0

hartnn (hartnn):
yes, so x+5=0 when x= ?
hartnn (hartnn):
also -x+2 = 0
x= ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so (-5,0)
hartnn (hartnn):
yes,
also 2,0

OpenStudy (anonymous):
thats for the -x+2?
hartnn (hartnn):
yes.
and i think -5 won't be intercept, because the function isn't defined for x=-5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh i get it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how do you graph that?

hartnn (hartnn):
oh, good u have options!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah but idk which one it is lol
hartnn (hartnn):
put various points , x=1, x=2 , x= -1 and so on anf find f(x), match it with graph
OpenStudy (anonymous):
alright
hartnn (hartnn):
really sorry for late replies.

it's ok, i got it wrong so i have to do a whole new problem
hartnn (hartnn):
:(
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the graph is pissing me off
