Answer as an inequality: [tex]\boldsymbol{2 \le y \le 7}[/tex]
Answer in interval notation: [2, 7]
==========================================================
Explanation:
The range is the set of all possible y outputs of a function.
The lowest point occurs when y = 2
The highest point occurs when y = 7
The range is the set of every y value between 2 and 7, including the endpoints.
The range as an inequality is [tex]2 \le y \le 7[/tex]
It is equivalent to [2, 7] in interval notation. The square brackets include each endpoint.
