Determine the range of each function: (i) f: R -> R defined by f(x) = 3x + 5; (ii) f: [-1, 5] -> R defined by f(x) = 3x + 5.
- (i) R, (ii) [2, 20]
- (i) R, (ii) [-1, 5]
- (i) [5, infinity), (ii) [2, 20]
- (i) R, (ii) [2, 5]
Correct answer: (i) R, (ii) [2, 20]
Solution
f(x) = 3x + 5 is increasing. Over all real x its outputs cover all reals, so the range is R. On [-1, 5] the minimum is at x = -1 and the maximum at x = 5, giving a closed interval.
