@UglyTurtle Can you help me please? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

That is false. The domain of sin(x) is all real numbers, or (-inf, inf). However, the range of sin(x) is indeed -1=< y <= 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have 2 more if you can help me?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This is also false correct?

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

Err, is there a reason you're asking us? You don't know what domain and range are? You don't know what the graphs look like?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I just don't understand it? :/

OpenStudy (uglyturtle):

The domains are the inputs and the range are the outputs.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And what does that mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Doesn't the answer have to be false? Because cos(x) takes values from -1 to 1.

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

It does take those values, but those aren't the only values it can take.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What else can it take?

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

It can take any number from -inf to +inf, all real numbers. That is the domain of the function, what inputs are you allowed to plug into the function.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

We're looking for the range though.

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

Right. It's easier if you are able to see a graph of cos(x). However, it is similar to sine. The range of cos(x) is -1 <= y <= 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is the answer for this question True or False? I need to go to sleep and this is my last question..

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

Well, what do you think? I pretty much explained the answer for you. The y-value of cos(x) go from -1 to 1. Do they only go from -1 to 0?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

True.

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

No, try again.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What... I said false earlier and you said it was incorrect.

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

I didn't say anything about your answer. I wanted to know what you didn't understand.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Alright. Thanks for answering. Night
