what is the domain of the graoh please explain how to do this..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Domain: set of all allowed inputs or x values

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so all you need to do is list all the x values of each point

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oooh ok let me se if i can get this..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

um what is the x value?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

any point is in the form (x,y)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

for example, the point (2,3) has the x coordinate of 2

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

a point is like an address, it gives it a unique place on the coordinate grid

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do i look at the horizontal part first or the vertical?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

not sure what you mean

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

To plot (2,3), you start at the origin. Then you go 2 units to the right (along the x axis) and you then go 3 units up and you'll arrive at (2,3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

like how do i find the domain of the point on the graph?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

List all the x coordinates of those points for me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

uum could you give me the domain for c so i have an idea aboiut what im suppose to do?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what point is point C

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

where is point C located on the coordinate grid

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2,3?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

the x coordinate of this point is ____

OpenStudy (anonymous):

uuum-2?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so that is one number in your domain you must do this with all of the points listed

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2,0,4,-1,1? is that right?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

look at point A again

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

the x coordinate of point A is ____

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so that 4 in that list above should be a 3 instead

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you can then sort the numbers to get -2, -1, 0, 1, 3 So the domain is the set {-2, -1, 0, 1, 3}

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2,0,3,-1,1

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

good

OpenStudy (anonymous):

got it thanks!
