Question: What is the domain and range of the absolute value of the equation \[y = {\text{ }}2x - 1\]?...

What is the domain and range of the absolute value of the equation y= 2x1y = {\text{ }}2x - 1?

Explanation

Solution

Domain and range meaning should be known . Apply it carefully and observe that absolute values only asked to be found in the given question. Absolute values define positive numbers.

Complete step by step answer:
The domain refers to the set of possible input values, and
The range is the set of possible output values.
For the given function, y=2x1y = \left| {2x - 1\left. {} \right|} \right..
where,yy is the range which we obtain by giving some values as a domain for xx.
And here ,absolute values are asked , so only positive answers will come.
we can take real numbers as x .
Hence, the domain for the above function is real numbers.
Coming to range what we will get output when we put the values of domain,
If we apply a real value to the place of x we get a value, which should be only positive as absolute value has been asked to find.
Hence, the range starts from 00 to \infty .
Domain = Real numbers.
Range = [0,)\left[ {0,\infty } \right) .

Note: The domain of a function is the set of all possible inputs for the function. For example, the domain of f(x)= x2x^2 is all real numbers, and the domain of g(x)=1/xg\left( x \right) = 1/x is all real numbers except forx=0x = 0.
The range of a function is the set of all output values (yy-values).
The absolute value of a number xxwhich is also called modulus of a number x\left| x \right| is a non-negative number.
