Idk

simsharrison · Answer

We can take out D, only because we arn't dealing with just infinity. There has to be some number(s) in the answer.

simsharrison · Answer

Now with that info. what do you think it is now? Or do you have any idea?

AZ · Answer

Do you know what domain and range is?

Domain is all the possible x-values we can have for the function
Range is all the possible y-values we can have for the function

Do you understand that

yeah kinda

AZ · Answer

Since this question is trying to make sure you understand the concept of range, I'm not going to ask you how to graph the function.

If you don't know how to graph the function, let me know and we can go over that first tho!

AZ · Answer

Otherwise, you can just use https://www.desmos.com/calculator Once you graph it, you can look at the x and y-values What are all the possible x values? Can you plug in any x number into your equation? If so, then your domain is $(-\infty, \infty)$

AZ · Answer

What are your possible y-values?

Is there a point on the graph where you reach the lowest possible y-value? Or maybe it's the highest y-value

What is the y-value at that point?

I know I am using the website

AZ · Answer

I gave you the domain, not the RANGE

AZ · Answer

Oh okay, so what did you find as the range?
