- all real numbers
- all real numbers
- y ≤ 3
- y ≥ 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The given function f(x) = -2x² + 3 belongs to the quadratic family of equations. A quadratic equation has a degree of 2. The degree is the highest power of the x variable in the function f(x)
The parent f(x) = x²
Going step by step:
2x² ==> graph x² is vertically stretched by 2. For any value of x in x², the new y value is twice that the old value. For example, in the original parent function x², for x = 2, y = 4. In the transformed function 2x², for x = 2, y = 2 x 4 = 8 so it has been stretched vertically. It becomes skinnier compared to the original
-2x² => graph is reflected over the x-axis. It is the mirror image of the original graph when viewed from the x-axis perspective
-2x² + 3 ==> graph is shifted vertically up by 3 units
Domain is the set of all x-input values for which the function is defined. For both x² and -2x² + 3 there are no restrictions on the values of x. So the domain for both is the set of all real numbers usually indicated by
-∞ < x < ∞
The range is the set of all possible y values for a function y = f(x) for x values in domain.
The range of f(x) = x² is x≥ 0 since x² can never be negative
Range of -2x² + 3 is x ≤ 3 : Range of -2x² is y ≤ 0 since y cannot be negative and therefore range of -2x² + 3 is y ≤ 3
