04 Domain and Range From A Graph

The document describes how to find the domain and range of a function from its graph. It provides an example graph and explains that: The domain is the set of x-values between the leftmost and rightmost points on the graph. Here, the domain is -1 ≤ x ≤ 1. The range is the set of y-values between the lowest and highest points on the graph. Here, the range is 0≤ y ≤3. It then provides a second example graph and explains that for this graph, the domain is 1/4 ≤ x ≤ 1 and the range is -3 ≤ y ≤ 0.

Topic: Domain and range from a graph

Question: What is the domain and range of the function? Assume the
graph does not extend beyond the graph shown.

Answer choices:

3 3
A −1 ≤ x ≤ 1 0≤y ≤−3
4 4

3 3
B 0≤x≤3 −1 ≤ y ≤ 1
4 4

3 3
C 0≤ x ≤−3 −1 ≤y≤1
4 4

3 3
D −1 ≤x≤1 0≤y≤3
4 4

10
Solution: D

To solve for the domain of the function on the graph, look at the graph
from left to right. The first x-value that exists for the function is at

3
x =−1
4

then the function continues smoothly until it ends at

3
x=1
4

This means the domain of the function is

3 3
−1 ≤ x ≤ 1
4 4

To solve for the range of the function on the graph, look at the graph from
bottom to top. The first y-value that exists for the function is at y = 0, then
the function continues smoothly until it ends at y = 3. This means the range
of the function is 0 ≤ y ≤ 3.

Solution: C

To solve for the domain of the function on the graph, look at the graph
from left to right. The first x-value that exists for the function is at x = 1/4,
then the function continues smoothly until it ends at x = 1. This means the
domain of the function is

1
≤x≤1
4

To solve for the range of the function on the graph, look at the graph from
bottom to top. The first y-value that exists for the function is at y = − 3,
then the function continues smoothly until it ends at y = 0. This means the
range of the function is −3 ≤ y ≤ 0.
