FIND RANGE OF FUNCTION FOR GIVEN DOMAIN

Domain :

The domain of a function f(x) is the set of all values for which the function is defined

Range :

The range of the function is the set of all values that f takes.

They may also have been called the input and output of the function.) .

It is like evaluating functions for the given value of x.

Example 1 :

Consider f(x)  =  x2 for the domain {-2, -1, 0, 1, 2}

Find the range.

Solution :

Given, f(x)  =  x2

If x  =  -2

f(-2)  =  (-2)2

f(-2)  =  4

If x  =  -1

f(-1)  =  (-1)2

f(-1)  =  1

If x  =  0

f(0)  =  (0)2

f(0)  =  0

If x  =  1

f(1)  =  12

f(1)  =  1

If x  =  2

f(2)  =  (2)2

f(2)  =  4

Range  =  {4, 1, 0, 1, 4}

Example 2 :

For the following functions of

f : x -> f(x) on -2≤x≤2

where x ∈ z

(a)  List the elements of the domain of f(x) using set notation.

(b)  List the elements of the range of f(x) using set notation.

(1)  f(x)  =  1/(x+3)   

(2)  (x+3)/x  and x ≠ 0

 (3)  f(x)  =  3x

(1)  Solution :

Given :

f(x)  =  1/(x+3)

Domain  =  {-2, -1, 0, 1, 2}

f(x)  =  1/(x+3)

If x  =  -2

f(-2)  =  1/(-2+3)

f(-2)  =  1

If x  =  -1

f(-1)  =  1/(-1+3)

f(-1)  =  1/2

If x  =  0

f(0)  =  1/(0+3)

f(0)  =  1/3

If x  =  1

f(1)  =  1/(1+3)

f(1)  =  1/4

If x  =  2

f(2)  =  1/(2+3)

f(2)  =  1/5

Range  =  {1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5}

(2)  Solution :

Given :

f(x)  =  (x+3)/x

Domain  =  {-2, -1, 0, 1, 2}

f(x)  =  (x+3)/x

If x  =  -2

f(-2)  =  (-2+3)/(-2)

f(-2)  =  -1/2

If x  =  -1

f(-1)  =  (-1+3)/(-1)

f(-1)  =  -2

If x  =  1

f(1)  =  (1+3)/1

f(1)  =  4

If x  =  2

f(2)  =  (2+3)/2

f(2)  =  5/2

Range  =  {-1/2, -2, 5/2, 4}

(3)  Solution :

Given :

f(x)  =  3x

Domain  =  {-2, -1, 0, 1, 2}

f(x)  =  3x

If x  =  -2

f(-2)  =  3-2

f(-2)  =  1/32

f(-2)  =  1/9 

If x  =  -1

f(-1)  =  3-1

f(-1)  =  1/3

If x  =  0

f(0)  =  30

f(0)  =  1

If x  =  1

f(1)  =  31

f(1)  =  3

If x  =  2

f(2)  =  32

f(2)  =  9

Range  =  {1/9, 1/3, 1, 3, 9}
