Post any help you need, and since I'm guessing the majority of TL users are in college/been through college, legit help can be given (; Anyways, here is my question find the range of f(x) = 3x^2 + 2 if the domain is limited to {-4, -2, 2, 4} I don't know where to start here. All I know is the range has to be above 2 because of the "+2" in the equation. I'm guessing you're going to have to find x, square it, and multiply by 2. Which I don't know how to do. | ||

for example f(-4) = 3*(-4)^2 +2 = 50 your range in this case would be just four values (or less if they overlap) (I think it is just 2 as this is parabola) You can punch the above into excel or into a scientific calculator and it will pop out the answer if you aren't the strongest at order of operations. the domain of f(x)=x^2 is all value greater then or equal to zero. the domain of f(x)=x^2 for -2<=x<=2 is all values between zero and 4. however since your have only four discrete domain values, your range is four or less discreet values. PM me if you need anything clarified. | ||

Maybe ask a mod or something, I noticed a lot of them get closed. Otherwise I'm game. | ||

I say limit it to explanations of how to do problems etc, and no just giving straight answers. To the OP, sorry can't help ya. Anywho, if this stays open ill probably be posting as the year goes on, first year BPE/BED reporting. Yes, I just made a blog and got it closed. I think one big thread is a good idea. I'll put in the OP explanations only. I doubt most people just want the answers anyways, most people try to LEARN the material IMO. | ||

Homework is meant to show that you know the material, just because you're getting help doesn't mean you haven't learned the material. I'm going to stop arguing now, and I don't want this thread to go off topic any more. | ||
