Continuous vs. Discrete: Finding Domain and Range Review

We will have to determine and write domain and range differently depending if the data is discrete or continuous (click each below

Example 1: Discrete Data
Consider the following set of data: {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

Domain: The domain is the set of all possible input values. In this case, the data is discrete and consists of specific numbers. Therefore, the domain is {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}.

Range: The range is the set of all possible output values. Again, since the data is discrete and consists of specific numbers, the range is also {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}.

Example 2: Continuous Data
Consider the following set of data: [0, 10]

Domain: The domain is the set of all possible input values. In this case, the data is continuous and represents a range of values from 0 to 10. Therefore, the domain is [0, 10].

Range: The range is the set of all possible output values. Since the data is continuous and represents a range of values, the range is also [0, 10].
