Question

How can I find the Domain and Range for y=1/-x -2 And y=-4/x-4 +4
they also ask me to compare these 2 problems with graph of y=1/x

please help me solve these algebra problems.

Answers

polynomials have a domain of all reals numbers.

rational functions, being the quotient of two polynomials, do also, with the exception of values where the denominator is zero.

So, 1/-x has a domain of all reals except x=0

rational functions with linear denominators always have a range of all reals.
