What is the range of the function f(x) = 12 − 3x for the domain {-4, -2, 0, 2, 4} ?

A24,18,12,6,20
B6,12,18,24,30

C.-12,-6,0,6,12

D.0,6,12,18,24

Verified Answer :

The answer is D. its D because when I replace x with those domain and I solve it , I got those ranges

Answer:

The range of the function is {24,18,12,6,0}                                                      

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The range of the function \(f(x)=12-3x\) for the domain {-4, -2, 0, 2, 4}.

To find : What is the range ?

Solution :

We have given the domain of the function so to find range we have to substitute the value of x i.e. domain,

\(f(x)=12-3x\)

For x=-4,

\(f(4)=12-3(-4)\)

\(f(4)=12+12\)

\(f(4)=24\)

For x=-2,

\(f(4)=12-3(-2)\)

\(f(4)=12+6\)

\(f(4)=18\)

For x=0,

\(f(4)=12-3(0)\)

\(f(4)=12+0\)

\(f(4)=12\)

For x=2,

\(f(4)=12-3(2)\)

\(f(4)=12-6\)

\(f(4)=6\)

For x=4,

\(f(4)=12-3(4)\)

\(f(4)=12-12\)

\(f(4)=0\)

So, The range of the function is {24,18,12,6,0}
