Answer: a) Domain: x = (-∞, ∞) b) Domain x = (-4, 4]
Range y = [2, ∞) Range y = [0, 4]
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Domain represents the x-values. Range represents the y-values.
a) the graph doesn't end so every x-value is possible
x = All Real Numbers x = (-∞, ∞)
The lowest y-value (minimum) is at y = 2. All other y-values are greater than that. y ≥ 2 y = [2, ∞)
b) The graph starts at x = -4 with an open dot so it doesn't include -4. It ends at x = +4 with a closed dot so it does include +4.
-4 < x ≤ 4 x = (-4, 4]
The lowest y-value (minimum) is at y = 0. All other y-values are greater than that up to y = 4. 0 ≤ y ≤ 4 y = [0, 4]
