Am I Right
for a.) Domain \[(-\infty,-3\] Range \[(-\infty,0)\]
B.) Domain \[[-6,\infty)\] Range \[[0,\infty)\]
for c.) Domain \[(-\infty,\infty)\] Range \[(-\infty,\infty)\]
b and c are good but let's check a again
as a hint: x can be ~anything~ except -3
so all values below -3 AND all values above -3 are in the domain
-3, infinity
good so (-inf,-3) U (-3,infinity) is the domain
for the range it can be anything except y = 0 so all values below 0 and all values above 0
0,infinity
good so (-infinity,0) U (0,infinity)
wait do I have to put U for every one
yes
the U means "union" which means both intervals are included
(technically it's not a U it's ∪ which is a little shorter than a capital U)
but isn't there only one set for domain and range

let me clarify
you don't connect the domain and range with a union symbol
WHere does the u come in
for a, we have to use two intervals to describe the domain so you would connect these two intervals with a Union symbol
there is no way to describe the entire domain using one set
Yes I understand that the domain and range are two different things and are written separately but what is the second interval that describes it..?
the domain of a is, in words "all x values below -3" "all x values above -3" each of these phrases needs one interval to describe it.
so (-infinity,-3) U (-3,infinity)
okay and range
range = all values below 0 and all values above 0
similar concept to the above
so (-0,infinity)
"all values below 0" "all values above 0" consider these two phrases separately and write an interval for each
(0,infinity) u and (
I meant -infinity for below and infinity for above
good, (-infinity,0) U (0,infinity)
that's it for a,b,c
wait for b the range is [-6,infinity) U [-6,-infinty)
your original answer for b was right
we only need one interval to describe the interval of b ("all x values greater than -6")
your original answers for b and c were right, there is no need to change them.
okay so for b domain [6,infinity) Range [0,infinity)
yes
and c domain (-infinity,infinity) Range (-infinity,infinity)
good.
