Determine the domain and the range
From the question, we understand that:
[tex]x \ge 1[/tex] --- at least 1 inch
[tex]x \le 3[/tex] --- not more than 3 inches
So, the domain is:
[tex]x \ge 1[/tex] and [tex]x \le 3[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]1 \le x[/tex] and [tex]x \le 3[/tex]
Combine both:
[tex]1 \le x \le 3[/tex]
Hence, the domain is:
[tex]Domain: \{1 \le x \le 3\}[/tex]
There is no available to determine the range.
A general rule is that, substitute the limits of the domain (i.e. 1 and 3) in the function formula, the result is the range of the dataset.
For instance:
[tex]A(x) = 5x[/tex]
We have:
[tex]A(1) = 5*1=5[/tex]
[tex]A(3) = 5*3=15[/tex]
The range will be:
[tex]Range: \{5 \le A(x) \le 15\}[/tex]
