1.2 domain and range Flashcards
domain
x values. input. locaters on a graph
range
y values. output. max/mins
math moral laws
1- thou shalt not divide by zero
2- thou shalt not take the square root of a negative number.
3- the log of 0 does not exist
set notation
{ } curly brackets. when the domain and/or range are distinct numbers/ data and NOT an interval of values. Set number.
D:{2, 3,4,5}
R:{6,8,10}
closed intervals
brackets. describes intervals that do not include end points. point of a curve. Also called inclusive
interval notation
use parenthesis (). Continuous curves. Open dot.
what are the x values of a parabola?
zeros/roots/solutions/x-intercepts
how do you find the vertex for a parabola? y=ax^2+bx+c
-b/2a
what does the symbol E stand for?
is a member of. tells you what kind of value an interval describes
Inclusive
[ ] point on a curve. Solid dot.
True or false: is infinity inclusive?
No, because it cannot be bound. Infinity + 1!
Use ( )
Graph. x=4 domain and range.
Not a function. Vertical line.
D: {4}
R: (-inf, inf)
Graph y= -5. D and r.
Not a function. Horizontal line.
D: (-inf, inf)
R: {-5}
Graph y=3x +2. D and r.
Yes a function. Linear. Both domain and range are (-inf, inf)
Graph x^2 -5x+6. D and r.
Parabola. ax^2 + bx + c.
Yes function. Graph: find vertex. x= -b/2a. Plug x back into the function to find the y point. (x,y) is the vertex.
D: (-inf,inf)
R: [vertex, inf)
Note that it’s inclusive because the vertex is a point on the curve.
