This document provides information about domains, ranges, and continuous functions:
- The domain is the set of all possible input values, and the range is the set of all possible output values.
- A continuous function allows the domain and range values to be any points within an interval, including fractions, decimals, and irrational numbers.
- Inequality notation uses open circles for excluded points and closed circles for included points. Arrows indicate values going to positive or negative infinity.
- The domain and range of continuous functions can be described using interval notation.

Unit 1 Lesson 3
The domain represents all possible x-values (input values)
The range represents all possible y-values (output values) Data is said to be continuous if the values belonging to the set can take on any value within an interval A continuous function allows the values of the domain and range to be any points in the interval, including fractions, decimals and irrational values When using inequality notation, remember the following: An open circle tells us the point is not included in the solution and we use the > or < sign A closed circle tells us the point is included in the solution and we use the or sign An arrow tells us that the x or y-values go on infinitely a particular direction, and we use in place of a number. When the domain and/or range is not restricted, we can indicate that in various ways: All real numbers < < or < <
Domain: all possible x-values Range: all possible y-values When we are given discrete data, we can define the exact domain and range Unlike discrete functions, it is impossible to list all of the values that x or y can be because the graphs are continuous and made up of an infinite number of points, like a line. In a continuous graph.
To determine the domain, look from left to right.
To determine the range, focus on looking bottom to top.
We use interval notation to help us describe the domain and
range for graphs that represent continuous situations Get out the 6 cards and the finding domain and range sheet we made yesterday We are going to use this to help us find domain and range of continuous functions! Domain: -6x3 Range: -6y-1 Domain: -7x<5 Range: -3y<1 Domain: -4<x<5 Range: -2y<5 For the next 3 problems, use your trick to find the answers! Once you find your answer, write it on the back of the card! Domain: -5<x5 Range: -2y2 Domain: -4x<3 Range: -5<y<5 Domain: -2x2 Range: 1y5 The endpoint is at (0, 0) and the arrow extends to the right indicating that it continues forever in the positive x and y directions. This graph covers all x and y values greater than or equal to 0. There is no stopping point on the right side of the graph. Domain: 0 Range: 0 Domain: All real numbers Range: y0 Domain: All real numbers Range: All real numbers You have two pages of graphed relations and two pages of domain/range pairs. Your task is to match the graphs to the domain and range. Be careful when writing the intervals to check the inequality signs You may work with a partner IF you keep your voices at a level 1.5! Work silently and independently You may use your notes When you are finished, you may work on your homework 1. D 2. C 3. D
