Make a table of values and connect the points with a parabola.
Graph:
Domain: All real numbers
Range: y≤ -3/4
| x | -x^2-3x-3 | y=-x^2-3x-3 |
|---|---|---|
| -3 | -( -3)^2-3( -3)-3 | -3 |
| -2 | -( -2)^2-3( -2)-3 | -1 |
| -1 | -( -1)^2-3( -1)-3 | -1 |
| 0 | -( 0)^2-3( 0)-3 | -3 |
| 1 | -( 1)^2-3( 1)-3 | -7 |
Now, let's plot the obtained points and connect them with a parabola.
We can see above that the x-variable can take any value. Conversely, the y-variable only takes values less than or equal to - 34. Using this information, we can write the domain and range of the function.
Domain:& All real numbers Range:& y≤ -3/4
