Answer:
DOMAIN:
RANGE:
Step-by-step explanation:
The domain of a graph is the span of x-values covered by the graph, while the range of a graph is the span of y-values covered by the graph.
DOMAIN:
From the graph, we can see that the x-values covers everything to the left of x=1. Then we stop and then continue beginning at x=2 all the way until positive infinity.
However, note that at x=1, the dot is a closed circle while at x=2, the dot is an open circle. Thus, we will include x=1 into our domain but not include x=2 into our domain.
So, our domain is all values greater than or less than 1, and all values greater than 2.
In interval notation, this is:
We use brackets with the 1 because we include it in our domain and we use parentheses with the 2 since we do not.
RANGE:
Looking at the graph, it seems that all y-values are covered. The part of the graph on the left covers all y-values less than or equal to 3, while the part of the graph on the right covers all y-values greater than -1. Thus, all y-values are covered.
Our range is all real numbers.
In interval notation, this is:
