Answer:
Domain: set of possible input values (x-values)
Range: set of output values (y-values)
The range for the function [tex]f(x)=-2|x-5|+8[/tex] is:
[tex]f(x)\leq 8[/tex]
(5, 8) is the vertex of the line
Because |x - 5| is absolute (so always positive) and it is multiplied by -2,
-2|x - 5| will always be negative unless x = 5 (when it will be zero). Therefore, the max y-value is 8.
However, your question actually asked what the function is when x = -5:
[tex]f(-5)=-2|x-5|+8\\\\= -2|-5-5|+8\\\\= -12[/tex]
