Answer:
5 to 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Product factor is an expression in where you multiply the same value digit many times.
Exponent is the expression in where you convert product factor expression into a shorter expression
For example of product factor:
=> 9 x 9 x 9 x 9 x 9 x 9 x 9 x 9 x 9
As you can see, 9 is multiplied many times, that makes it longer.
Now, let’s make this product factor shorter using exponent.
=> since 9 is multiplied 9 times the exponent expression is:
=> 9 9 in where 9 is the base and the other 9 is called exponent.
You can describe the domain by every possible x value in the function, since that function has a vertical intersection line which means the x value will never pass it on the negative side, the domain would be from -2 to all the postive numbers, X > -2 or (-2,∞).
For the range, simply it's all the possible y values. In that function it's impossible to go under 0 or negative value. That means the range would be Y>0 or (0,∞).
If you want to know if it's a function or not you could try the vertical line test, select any x value and draw straight line on it, if the line crosses 2 y points in the same x value it wont be a function, In your case each x value has it's own Y value.
So the answer is Domain x>-2; Range y>0; Yes, it is a function
i)
Axis of symmetry:
x = - 2 (the value of x vertex)
ii)
Vertex:
The vertex of a parabola is the point where the parabola crosses its axis of symmetry.
The vertex (-2, -4)
iii)
Domain:
All real number
iv)
Range: y >= - 4 (the vertex is the lowest point on the graph, it has minimum value and opens up)
