Domains are the values of x

anonymous · Answer

yes but arent they asking for the domain?

mehek14 · Answer

yes they want to know what you substituted x with to get the range

mehek14 · Answer

so try A
substitute the value of x with 0

anonymous · Answer

oh okay so since the domain is not gving its like im working backwards right?

first do what I said
substitute the value of x with 0 and see if you get -13
