When graphing the function f(x)=-|x+5|+12 on your graphing calculator, what is the most appropriate viewing window for determining the domain and range of the function?

Pick a window that centers the vertex at (-5,12) and shows the arms extending left and right so you can see they continue off the screen.

Suggested window:
- x: [-20, 10], y: [-10, 15]
- x- and y-scale: 1

This displays the vertex at (-5,12) and the V-shaped graph descending on both sides (so you can conclude domain = (−∞, ∞) and range = (−∞, 12]). A slightly smaller useful window is x ∈ [−15,5], y ∈ [−5,15].
