You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Be sure you know the definition of the domain and range.

\n" ); document.write( "Briefly:
\n" ); document.write( "Domain: The set of the first coordinates of all the ordered pairs of a function or expression, usually for the variable \"x\"
\n" ); document.write( "Range: The set of the 2nd coordinates of all the ordered pairs of a function or expression, usually for the variable \"y\"
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "What is the domain of the relation {(1,4)(0,-2)(2,3)(-1,4)(-3,0)}.
\n" ); document.write( "The 1st value is x, its part of the domain, in the above set the domain is:
\n" ); document.write( "1, 0, 2, 3, -1, -3
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "What is the range of the relation {(1,4)(0,-2)(2,3)(-1,4)(-3,0).
\n" ); document.write( "The 2nd value is y, it's part of the range, in the above set the range is:
\n" ); document.write( "4, -2, 3, 4, 0
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Find the domain of x minus 2y = 1 if the range is {-2,0,5,8}.
\n" ); document.write( "Replace the given values for y and find x in the equation: x - 2y = 1
\n" ); document.write( "The 1st value for y
\n" ); document.write( "x - 2(-2) = 1
\n" ); document.write( "x -(-4) = 1
\n" ); document.write( "x + 4 = 1
\n" ); document.write( "x = 1 - 4; subtracted 4 from both sides
\n" ); document.write( "x = -3 (when y = -2)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "The 2nd value for y
\n" ); document.write( "x - 2(0) = 1
\n" ); document.write( "x = 1

\n" ); document.write( "The 3rd value for y
\n" ); document.write( "x - 2(5) = 1
\n" ); document.write( "x - 10 = 1
\n" ); document.write( "x = 1 + 10
\n" ); document.write( "x = +11
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "I let you do the last value; substitute 8 for y and find x
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Solve y = -2x + 7 if the domain is {-2,0,4,7}
\n" ); document.write( "Here you substitute the given values for x and find y in the equation
\n" ); document.write( "y = -2(-2) + 7
\n" ); document.write( "y = +4 + 7
\n" ); document.write( "y = + 11; (when x = -2)

\n" ); document.write( "Find y when x value is 0

\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "You should be able to find y, when x = 7 now
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "You should have an understanding of the domain and range now, if you have any
