The domain of any sinusoidal function is all real numbers.
The "3/2" coefficient on the cosine function changes the period; it has no effect on the range.
The "x-1" causes a phase (horizontal) shift; it also has no effect on the range.
The "-4" expands the graph vertically, so it does affect the range.
The "+3" shifts the graph vertically, so it also affects the range.
The basic cosine function oscillates between -1 and 1.
The "-4" coefficient changes the range to between -4 and 4.
The "+3", since it moves the whole graph up 3, changes the range to between -1 and 7.
ANSWERS:
Domain: all reals
Range: [-1,7]
