Chapter 2.2, Problem 15AYU

In Problems 13-24, determine whether the graph is that of a function by using the vertical-line test. If it is, use the graph to find:

(a) The domain and range

(b) The intercepts, if any

(c) Any symmetry with respect to the $x\text{-axis}$, the $y\text{-axis}$, or the origin

To determine

To find: The given graph is that of a function by using vertical-line test; if it is, using the graph to find.

a. The domain and range;

b. The intercepts, if any;

c. Any symmetry with respect to the $x\text{-axis}$, the $y\text{-axis}$ or the origin.

Answer to Problem 15AYU

Solution:

Not a function.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The following graph

Calculation:

The given graph is not a graph of a function because there is a vertical line that interests the graph in more than one point.
