Question

Use the graph of the function shown.

The coordinate grid has x and y axes from negative 5 to 5. A logarithmic function is shown. A dashed asymptote is shown at x equals 1.

For a logarithmic function with a vertical asymptote at \(x = 1\), the domain consists of all \(x\) values greater than 1, because the logarithm is undefined for \(x \leq 1\). Therefore, the domain is \((1, \infty)\).

If the range of the logarithmic function appears to extend infinitely upward from a certain point, and if you mention that the function's value reaches at least 4 and continues to extend upwards, then the range would be \([4, \infty)\).

Thus, the correct answer would be:

**Domain: (1, ∞); Range: [4, ∞)**

**Response: Domain: open paren 1 comma infinity close paren ; Range: left bracket 4 comma infinity right parenthesis**
