Question 9 • Algebra II

What is the range of the function y is equal to 2 e to the x th power minus 1 ?

Answer
A
all real numbers greater than 1
B
all real numbers less than negative 1
C
all real numbers greater than negative 1
D
all real numbers less than 1

Explanation

For every real x, e^x is positive, so 2e^x is also positive. Therefore y = 2e^x − 1 is always greater than −1; it can get arbitrarily close to −1 but never equal it, so the range is all real numbers greater than −1.
