How do I find the range of this function?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ \left| x \right|+3 }{ x-3 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry, thats wrong.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ \left| x \right|-3 }{ x-3 }\]

OpenStudy (precal):

look at its graph

OpenStudy (precal):

Range is the y values that are value for the function

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The graph is confusing though. The y values seem to slowly go down forever.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hmmm so would it be all values of y less than or equal to 1?

OpenStudy (precal):

looks like it high point is 1 and x can not equal 3 (but that is the domain value)

OpenStudy (precal):

-1 to 1 is what the range looks like

OpenStudy (precal):

I used my graphing calculator and I also, looked at my tables. y=-1 is the horizontal asymptote

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, I see. thank you!
