Given:
The graph of a downward parabola.
To find:
The domain and range of the graph.
Solution:
Domain is the set of x-values or input values and range is the set of y-values or output values.
The graph represents a downward parabola and domain of a downward parabola is always the set of real numbers because they are defined for all real values of x.
Domain = R
Domain = (-∞,∞)
The maximum point of a downward parabola is the vertex. The range of the downward parabola is always the set of all real number which are less than or equal to the y-coordinate of the vertex.
From the graph it is clear that the vertex of the parabola is at point (5,-4). So, value of function cannot be greater than -4.
Range = All real numbers less than or equal to -4.
Range = (-∞,-4]
Therefore, the domain of the graph is (-∞,∞) and the range of the graph is (-∞,-4].

Answer:
The value of a = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function
From the attached graph, it is clear that
at x = 0,
∵ 
Thus
When x = 0, the y-intercept will be:
From the attached figure, it is clear that
at x = 0, the value of y = 3
so
putting y = 3 in the equation
3 = a ∵ 
Therefore, the value of a = 3
The answer would be 2. This is because inverse means opposite, and since f(x)=-2, then that means the inverse would be 2.
There are two ways you could go about solving this.
You could divide the length of the base (6mm) by 2 and use that to find the area or you could find the area of the whole triangle using 6mm and divide that by 2.
I will use the first method I described:
base = 6/2
base = 3 mm
height = 5.2 mm
area = bh/2
area = (3 * 5.2)/2
area = 7.8 square mm
(don't forget your units)
Using the other method would look like this:
area = bh/2
b = 6
h = 5.2
area = (6 * 5.2)/2
area = 15.6 square mm
area/2 = 7.8 square mm
As you can see either method yields the same result.
Hope this helped.
Cheers and good luck,
Brian
