Accepted Answer

$$[0, 15]$$

Question 15

A function $$f$$ has domain $$[0, 10]$$ and range $$[2, 8]. Is$$ $$f(12)$$ defined?

Accepted Answer

No, because 12 is not in the domain

Question 16

A student claims, 'If the domain of a function is all real numbers, then the range must also be all real numbers.' Which of the following disproves this claim?

Accepted Answer

$$f(x) = x^2$ has domain $$(-\infty, \infty)$$ but range $$[0, \infty)$$
