Short Answer

Graph each function. Compare to the parent graph. State the domain and range.

y=2x2

The graph of the given function y=2x2 is:

The parent graph is graph of y=x. The graph of the function y=2x2 is obtained by shifting the graph of the function y=x horizontally right by 2 units and stretching the graph vertically by 2 units.

The domain of the given function y=2x2 is x2,.

The range of the given function y=2x2 is y0,.

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1. Graph the given function y=2x−2.

Make a table for values of x and y.

xy=2x2
2y=222=0
3y=232=2
6y=262=4
11y=2112=6

Draw the graph of the function y=2x2 by using the table for values of x and y.

Step 2. Compare the graph of the function y=2x−2 with the parent graph.

The parent function is y=x.

The graphs of the function y=2x2 and y=x are:

From the graphs of the function y=2x2 and role="math" localid="1647980572367" y=x, it can be noticed that the graph of the function y=2x2 is obtained by shifting the graph of the function y=x horizontally right by 2 units and stretching the graph vertically by 2 units.

Step 3. State the domain and range of the function y=2x−2.

The domain is the set of values of independent variable for which the function is defined and range is the set of values of dependent variable which is obtained by substituting the values of independent variable which are in the domain of the function.

In the function y=2x2, x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable. Therefore, domain of the function y=2x2 is the set of values of x for which the function is defined and range of the function y=2x2 is the set of values of y which is obtained by substituting the values of x which are in the domain of the function.

Therefore, the domain of the function y=2x2 is x2, and range of the function y=2x2 is y0,.
