Study Notes

Example 2: The Squaring Function

  • The problem is to find the domain and range of the squaring function
  • The function is f(x) = x2, where x is a real number
  • The domain of f is explicitly given as the set of all real numbers.
  • As x runs through all the real numbers, x2 runs through all the nonnegative numbers
  • The range is therefore [0, ∞)

Example 3:

  • The problem is to find the domain and range of the function g(x) = √(2x + 9), x ∈ [0, 8]
  • The domain of g is given as the closed interval [0, 8].
  • g(0) = √(2(0) + 9) = √9= 3
  • g(8) = √(2(8) + 9) = √25 = 5
  • The range is therefore [3, 5]
