The domain of f(x) is all set of real values while, the domain of g(x) is x ≤ -1 or x ≥ 2 and both functions have the same range

Part A: Compare the domain and range of the function f(x) to g(x)

The functions are given as:

f(x) = x^4 - 2x^3 - 3x^2 + 4x + 4

g(x) = √(x^2 - x - 2)

Domain

The polynomial function f(x) has no restriction on its input.

So, the domain of f(x) is all set of real values

Set the radical of g(x) = √(x^2 - x - 2) greater than 0

x^2 - x - 2 ≥ 0

Factorize

(x + 1)(x - 2) ≥ 0

Solve for x

x ≥ -1 and x ≥ 2

Combine both inequalities

x ≤ -1 and x ≥ 2

So, the domain of g(x) is x ≤ -1 or x ≥ 2

Range

Using a graphical calculator, we have:

  • Range of f(x) = x^4 - 2x^3 - 3x^2 + 4x + 4 ⇒ f(x) ≥ 0
  • Range of g(x) = √(x^2 - x - 2) ⇒ g(x) ≥ 0

Hence, both functions have the same range

How do the breaks in the domain of h(x) relate to the zeros of f(x)?

We have:

h(x) = (-x^2 + x)/(x^2 - x - 2)

Set the denominator to 0

x^2 - x - 2 = 0

The above represents the radical of the function f(x)

This means that the breaks in the domain of h(x) and the zeros of f(x) are the same
