Question

Identify the domain of the function shown in the graph.

Answer 1

Understanding

The domain of a function is basically all the values where x is defined, and by defined, it means it has a y value corresponding to it. In this graph, x is defined from -5 to 5. If you look outside this range of numbers (from -5 to 5 on the x-axis) you will not find any y values for them. We can easily say the solution is A.

Solution:

[A] $-5$

Note: From what I see from the picture -5 and 5 are included in the domain, either the question is incorrectly written, or the picture isn't clear enough. If so, the answer should be $-5\leq x\leq 5$.

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is A choice.

Explanation:

By looking at the graph, we notice that at the left side, the domain/x-value stops at -5 and 5.

Thus, the domain is at the left end side to the right end side.

The domain stops at -5 on the left side and 5 on the right side. Thus the answer is

-5 < x < 5.

The A choice.
