ANSWER
4)x^3+ 5x^2- 9x- 45=0
EXPLANATION
Factoring by grouping is used to factor expressions that have four terms.
Among the given options, the fourth option is
There are already four terms in this expression.
So we group the first two and the last two and factor.
We can see that x² is common to the first two terms and -5 is common to the last 2 terms.
The fourth choice is correct.

The domain is the set of all point where you can evaluate the function.
As you can see, the first piece is defined from -infinity to 2 (included).
The second piece is defined from 2 to 6 (excluded).
The third piece is defined from 6 (excluded) to +infinity.
So, the domain of the function is composed by all the real numbers which are not 6:
As for the range, it is the set of all values taken by the function. We can see that the first piece spans the y axis from 0 to infinity.
The second piece is constantly equal to 2, so it adds nothing.
The third piece spans the y axis from -2 to -infinity, so the range is
