Question

Domain and Range for the function f(x)=5IXI is

Answer 1

Answer:

The domain of the function f(x) is:

$\mathrm{Domain\:of\:}\:5\left|x\right|\::\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:-\infty \:$

The range of the function f(x) is:

$\mathrm{Range\:of\:}5\left|x\right|:\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:f\left(x\right)\ge \:0\:\\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:[0,\:\infty \:)\end{bmatrix}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

$f\left(x\right)=5\left|x\right|$

Determining the domain:

We know that the domain of the function is the set of input or arguments for which the function is real and defined.  

In other words,  

• Domain refers to all the possible sets of input values on the x-axis.

It is clear that the function has undefined points nor domain constraints.

Thus, the domain of the function f(x) is:

$\mathrm{Domain\:of\:}\:5\left|x\right|\::\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:-\infty \:$

Determining the range:

We also know that range is the set of values of the dependent variable for which a function is defined.  

In other words,  

• Range refers to all the possible sets of output values on the y-axis.

We know that the range of an Absolute function is of the form

$c|ax+b|+k\:\mathrm{is}\:\:f\left(x\right)\ge \:k$

$k=0$

so

Thus, the range of the function f(x) is:

$\mathrm{Range\:of\:}5\left|x\right|:\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:f\left(x\right)\ge \:0\:\\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:[0,\:\infty \:)\end{bmatrix}$
