Quick question. What's the domain for this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for what?

OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):

|dw:1440792391540:dw| I'm not sure if it's \(-6<x<3\) or \(-6\le x \le 3\), but I'm PRETTY sure it's the first one.

OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):

I know I didn't include the points, but that's what they are, lol

OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):

@imqwerty

OpenStudy (freckles):

the open circles means the relation doesn't exist there

OpenStudy (freckles):

your relation is not defined anywhere else for x=-6 or x=3 so you definitely will not include x=-6 or x=3

OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):

So the first inequality was correct?

OpenStudy (freckles):

yes you don't want to include x=-6 or x=3 and your second inequality does that that is what the little horizontal lines under the inequalities mean less than or equal to

imqwerty (imqwerty):

yea the 1st inequality is correct cause the values -6 and 3 are omitted in the graph :)

OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):

Yes, I know that part @freckles. haha

OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):

Thanks!

OpenStudy (freckles):

oh then I guess I wasn't sure why you were asking why not to include the equality part

OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):

Idek why I was uncertain. I think it's because it was a circle and it was on both sides, but I don't know XD thanks thought :)

OpenStudy (freckles):

|dw:1440793380136:dw| if it was this then you say: \[-6 < x \le 3 \]

OpenStudy (freckles):

|dw:1440793415292:dw| or if it was this then you would say: \[-6 \le x \le 3 \]
