Accepted Solution

A:
Answer: D = {0 , 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5} and R = {1 , 2 , 4 , 8 , 16 , 32} ⇒ answer DStep-by-step explanation:* Lets talk about the domain and the range of a function- The domain is the input values- The range is the output values- f(x) = y,  x is the input then x is the domain of the function and y is the   output then y is the range of the function- Example:# If x = {2 , 3 , 5) and f(x) = 2x- The input is x to find f(x) substitute the values of x in f(x) - f(2) = 2(2) = 4 , f(3) = 2(3) = 6 , f(5) = 2(5) = 10- The output is f(x) = {4 , 6 , 10}- From all steps above the domain of f(x) is {2 , 3 , 5) and the range  is {4 , 6 , 10}* Lets solve the problem- There are 32 teams participating  in a single-elimination soccer  tournament- x is the number of rounds- f(x) is the number of teams- only the winning teams from each round progress to the next  round of the tournament* Lets look to the graph and find the domain and the range- The domain the the values of x and the range is the values of f(x)∵ At x = 0 then f(0) = 32 ⇒ 32 teams inter the 1st round∵ At x = 1 then f(1) = 16 ⇒ 16 teams inter the 2nd round∵ At x = 2 then f(2) = 8 ⇒ 8 teams inter the 3rd round∵ At x = 3 then f(3) = 4 ⇒ 4 teams inter the 4th round∵ At x = 4 then f(4) = 2 ⇒ 2 teams inter the 5th round∵ At x = 5 then f(5) = 1 ⇒ 1 team in win- From all above:∴ The domain is {0 , 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5} and the range is {1 , 2 , 4 , 8 , 16 , 32}* D = {0 , 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5} and R = {1 , 2 , 4 , 8 , 16 , 32}
