The range of a piecewise function g(x) for x < -3 and x\geq-3 is ( -6, ∞ ).

     

Given function,

g(x)=\left \{ {{x^2-5 ~for~x ~ < ~-3 } \atop {2x~for~x~\geq-3}} \right.
We have to find the range of this function.

If we take x < -3 we have to take the function x^2-5.

If we take x~\ge-3 we have to take the function 2x.

<h3>What is the range of a function?</h3>

The set of the outputs of a function is called the range of a function.

Example: f(x) = 3x + 1 where x = 1,2,3

Range of f(x) = {4, 7, 10}.

We see that the x values we can take for the given function are:

x < -3\\x\geq-3

We see that x can take values as:

-∞ ........ ,-5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, .......∞

We can say also write as x ∈ ( -∞, ∞ ).

Let's take x values of x\geq-3

For x = -3, g(x) = 2 x -3 = -6.

For x = -2, g(x) = 2 x -2 = -4.

For x = -1, g(x) = 2 x -1 = -2.

For x = 0, g(x) = 2 x 0 = 0

For x = 1, g(x) = 2 x 1 = 2.

For x = 2, g(x) = 2 x 2 = 4 and so on.

If we take x \geq-3 we see that g(x) will tend to  + ∞.

Lets take x values of x < -3.

For x = -4, g(x) = -4 x -4  - 5 = 16 - 5 = 11.

For x = -5, g(x) = -5x-5 -  5  = 25 - 5 = 20.

For x = -6, g(x) = -6 x -6 -  5 = 36 - 5 = 31.

For x = -7 g(x) = -7 x -7 - 5 = 49 - 5 = 44 and so on.

If we take x < -3 we see that g(x) tend to + ∞.

Thus for the given x values, the lowest value of g(x) is -6, and g(x) values keep on increasing.

Thus the range of a piecewise function g(x) for x < -3 and x\geq-3 is ( -6, ∞ ).

Given:

1.  -3 x^{2}\left(4 x^{3}-7\right)\\$2. $(6 x-5)(2 x+3)$\\3. $(3 x-1)\left(x^{2}+5 x-2\right)$

To find:

The product of the polynomials.

Solution:

1. -3 x^{2}\left(4 x^{3}-7\right) =-3 x^{2}(4 x^{3}) -3 x^{2}(-7)

Multiply the numerical coefficient and add the powers of x.

                          =-12 x^{5}+21 x^{2}

2. (6 x-5)(2 x+3)=6 x(2 x+3)-5(2x+3)

Multiply each term of first polynomial with each term of 2nd polynomial.

Multiply the numerical coefficient and add the powers of x.

                              =12 x^2+18x-10 x-15

                              =12 x^2+8x-15

3. (3 x-1)\left(x^{2}+5 x-2\right)=3 x(x^{2}+5 x-2)-1(x^{2}+5 x-2)

Multiply each term of first polynomial with each term of 2nd polynomial.

Multiply the numerical coefficient and add the powers of x.

                                      =3x^{3}+15 x^2-6x-x^{2}-5 x+2

Add or subtract like terms together.

                                      =3x^{3}+14 x^2-11x+2

The answer for multiplying polynomials:

1. -12 x^{5}+21 x^{2}

2. \  12 x^2+8x-15

3. \ 3x^{3}+14 x^2-11x+2
