What is the range of f(x) = 3x + 9 given x > 0?
{y | y < 9}, {y | y > 9}, {y | y > 3}, {y | y < 3}
Solution:
The range of a function in algebra is the set of all its outputs.
Given:
function f(x) = 3x + 9 and the domain (value of x) of x is x > 0.
Let us substitute the value of x greater than 0 and observe the result.
f(x) = 3x + 9
Put x = 1
f(1) = 3(1) + 9
f(1) = 3 + 9 = 12
Put x = 2
f(2) = 3(2) + 9
f(2) = 6 + 9 = 15
The value of f(x) is increasing for every increasing value of x
Therefore the range will be y > 9
What is the range of f(x) = 3x + 9 given x > 0?
Summary:
The range of the function f(x) = 3x + 9 will be {y | y > 9}
