Exploring Domain, Range, and Interval Notation

The video tutorial introduces the concepts of domain and range, explaining how they represent input and output values in functions. It introduces interval notation as a concise way to express these values, using parentheses and brackets to indicate whether endpoints are included. The tutorial provides examples and uses graphs to illustrate how domain and range are applied in different scenarios. It also covers graphing linear equations with specific domains and explores compound domains. The video concludes with a recap of the importance of understanding these concepts, especially in preparation for more advanced algebra courses.

What is the domain of a function?

• The set of all input values

• The set of all y-values

• The set of all z-values

• The set of all output values

In interval notation, what do parentheses indicate?

• Including the end values

• Excluding the end values

• Including only the first value

• Including only the second value

How would you write the domain of all x-values between -1 and 5, excluding -1 and 5, in interval notation?

• (-1, 5]

• [-1, 5)
