(b) range:
Studdy Solution
STEP 1
1. The function is a quadratic function, which is a parabola.
2. The vertex of the parabola is given at the point .
3. The parabola opens downward.
STEP 2
1. Determine the domain of the quadratic function.
2. Determine the range of the quadratic function.
STEP 3
The domain of a quadratic function is all real numbers because a parabola extends infinitely in both the left and right directions on the x-axis.
Domain: All real numbers
STEP 4
Since the parabola opens downward and the vertex is at , the maximum value of the function is at .
The range of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to .
Range:
(a) domain: All real numbers
(b) range:
