can you help me to find the domain and range given this mathematical statement? y=1/x-2 y = -√ x y=2x/x-4

  1. y = 1 / x-2
    The domain is all real number, except the numbers that make the denominator 0, since that would make your statement undefined
    x – 2 = 0
    x = 2
    So you domain is all real number except 2:
    (-infinity, 2) U (2, +infinity)

    And the range is all real numbers
    (-infinity, +infinity)

    y = -√x
    Since we are not dealing with imaginary numbers, the domain is all numbers that are not negative.
    [0, +infinity)

    And since the square root of a number is a positive number, the range is all numbers that are not positive
    (-infinity, 0]

    y=2x / x-4
    The domain is all real number, except the numbers that make the denominator 0, since that would make your statement undefined
    x – 4 = 0
    x = 4
    So you domain is all real number except 4:
    (-infinity, 4) U (4, +infinity)

    And the range is all real numbers
    (-infinity, +infinity)

    I hope this helped
