How do you find the domain and range of f(x)= 8/x-4 in Interval Notation?
1 Answer
Domain:
Range:
Explanation:
Given:
Analytically you would first find a common denominator:
This type of equation is called a rational (fraction) function:
When
There is a vertical asymptote at
A domain of all reals in interval notation is
We use the set notation of union
Domain:
Horizontal asymptotes limit the range of the function. To find horizontal asymptotes we look at the degree of both the numerator and denominator:
If
If
If
In the given function
The horizontal asymptote:
Range:
graph{8/x - 4 [-10,10, -15, 15]}
