Domain and Range
A. Linear Function | |
---|---|
\(y = mx + c\)
|
Domain
\(- \sim \: < x < \: \sim\)
Range \(- \sim \: < y < \: \sim\) |
B. Quadratic Function |
|
Concave up
\(y = ax^2 + bx + c, \: a > 0\)
|
Domain
\(- \sim \: < x < \: \sim\)
Range \(\{y \geq y_{\text{min}}\}\)
Determine extreem value \(x_p = - \dfrac {b}{2a}\) Substitute \(x_{\text{p}}\) into the equation to find \(y_p\) |
Concave down
\(y = ax^2 + bx + c, \: a < 0\)
|
Domain
