Hey there!!
Remember : R = range and f ( x ) = y and y = range
R : { 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 }
( 1 ) 5 = 1 x / 2 + 4
... 5 - 4 = x / 2
... 1 = x / 2
... x = 2 = ( 2 , 5 )
( 2 ) 6 = x / 2 + 4
... 2 = x / 2
... x = 4 = ( 4 , 6 )
( 3 ) 7 = x / 2 + 4
... 3 = x / 2
... x = 6 = ( 6 , 7 )
( 4 ) 8 = x /2 + 4
... 4 = x/2
... x = 8 = ( 8 , 8 )
Hope my answer helps!
