Free Domain and Range Calculator
Find the Domain and Range for any Function in a matter of seconds.How do I use the Domain and Range Calculator?
Just enter your Function and press the āCalculate Domain and Rangeā button. The Domain and Range will be displayed in a new window.
What is the Domain and Range?
1) The Domain is defined as the set of all possible x-values that can be plugged into a function.
2) The Range of a function is defined as the set of all resulting y values.
Example: Find the Domain and Range of \( \sqrt(x-3) \)
1) The Domain is defined as the set of x-values that can be plugged into a function. Here, we can only plug in x-values greater or equal to 3 into the square root function avoiding the content of a square root to be negative.
Thus, domain is x>=3 .
Using Interval Notation we write: [3,\infty )
2) The Range of a function is defined as the set of all resulting y values. Here, the lowest y coordinate is y=0 achieved when x=3 is plugged in. The larger the x value plugged in the larger the y coordinate we obtain.
Thus, the range is y>=0 .
Using Interval Notation we write: [0,\infty )
What’s another way to think of Domain and Range?
1) The Domain are the x-values going left (from the smallest x-value) to right (to the largest x-value).
2) The Range are the y-values going from lowest (from the smallest y-value) to highest (to the largest y-value).
What are Domain and Range of a constant Function? In Example y=6 .
1) The Domain is all real numbers. Any number can be plugged into y=6.
2) The Range is just y=6. The lowest and highest y are both 6.
