Can somebody help me with this !!!!!!!thanks
1 answer:
Given:
The graph of a parabola.
To find:
The domain, range and check whether it is a function or not.
Solution:
Domain: The set of x-values or input values is known as domain.
Range: The set of y-values or output values is known as range.
A relation is a function if their exist unique outputs for each input. In other words a graph is a relation if it pass the vertical line test.
Vertical line test: Each vertical line intersect the graph at most once.
The given function is defined for all real values of x which are greater than or equal to -3. So, the domain of the given graph is:
The given function values can be any real number. So, the range of the given graph is:
For x=0, we have two values of the function because the graph intercept the y-axis at two points.
Since the graph does not pass the vertical line test therefore the given graph is not a function.

So you correctly wrote that the slope is represented by Δy/Δx. The Greek capital letter delta means "change in," so we are looking at the change in y divided by the change in x. You might also hear this called "rise over run," because change in y is the vertical change (rise) and change in x is the horizontal change (run).
Now, to find the change in y and x, we need to take two points,
and 
. We can then find the slope, m, as below:
So, as we're asked to state the slope and the behavior of the graph. Generally, if you see that as x increases, y increases, then the slope is positive. If y decreases, then the slope is negative. If y stays the same (constant), then the slope is zero. If x is constant, then the slope is undefined. Unfortunately, this worksheet also asks us to calculate the slope. So the equation above comes in handy!
1) let's take x = -1, y = -5 and x = 0, y = 3. We can write
and 
(we can choose either point to be 
so long as we're consistent.
This is a positive (+) change.
2)
Negative (–).
3)
Positive (+).
4)
Positive (+).
5)
Negative (–).
