The domain is about how far left-to-right the graph goes.
In relation to the x-axis, the graph starts at x = –3 (with an open circle at –3) and then continues over to the right forever.
This is the shown in the picture with the red markup.
In interval notation, this is (-3, infinity).
Remember to use that left-to-right orientation for interval notation!
The range is in turn about how low to how high the graph goes.
On the graph, I’d do the same thing I did on the red marked up graph and compare the graph to the y-axis.
The graph starts down at y = –5 (with an open circle at –5) and then continues on up forever.
In interval notation, this is (-5, infinity).
